    Hi @reemas!

    The general guideline is to only use 1Password, without additional password storage methods such as Keychain, or the browser's built in password manager. This is to avoid confusion and minimize the amount of back and forth that you have to do to access your items.

    Do you save you 1Password master password in keychain?

    I personally don't save my Master Password in Keychain. I prefer having it in my head (after all, it's the only password I need to remember ;) ).

    I have also written it on my Emergency Kit.
