With 1PW8 I’ve been unable to reliably open 1PW with my fingerprint.

Hi debstr 👋🏻

Sorry to hear fingerprint unlock isn't behaving as expected, can you tell me if you've been able to unlock 1Password 8 in the past with your fingerprint on the same device? I'd also like to ask you to create a diagnostics report from your Mac so we can take investigate the issue further:

Attach the diagnostics to an email message addressed to support+forum@1password.com.

With your email please include:

Regarding your other concern, it sounds like you're referring to whether or not 1Password locks when closed, is this correct? I recommend reviewing your auto-lock settings:

Let me know what you find there and we can figure out our next steps. Looking forward to hearing from you! 🙂
