3 years agoMy 1Password started doing the same since yesterday. It is extremely annoying!
When my browser is idle for 15 minutes the 1Password locks and normally biometric (fingerprint) should unlock it. But, it doesn't. The Chrome extension always requires me typing in the master password.
Btw, what does "idle" mean? I was watching YT videos and doing my daily job and if I don't use 1Password for 15 minutes it gets locked. So, I assume idle means the 1Password (either Chrome extension or the Mac App itself) is not used.
The Mac App still works with biometric.
What I did so far:
- I restarted the browser
- I restarted the whole laptop
- I ensured that the Mac App is unlocked before I use Chrome App
- I changed the lock time from 10 minutes to 15 minutes
None of the above have any change on the described behavior. The Chrome extension still requires me to enter my master password when it gets locked.
The app version: 1Password for Mac 8.9.14 (80914009)
The Chrome Extension version: Version 2.6.0
Lock after system is idle for: 15 minutes
