    Hi @mirralph! Welcome to the forum!

    2-factor authentication is only available for 1Password Membership accounts. The feature cannot exist in the standalone version of 1Password because you are just using the app, without a server that checks your 2FA codes.

    If you want to use 2FA to protect your 1Password account, you can sign up for one and then turn on Two-Factor Authentication for it.

    To bad because I do not want to be tied to a subscription.
