I have an M1 MacBook Pro which I keep closed and attached to an external display, keyboard, and trackpad. I just purchased the Magic Keyboard with Touch ID for it. I have set up my fingerprint for the keyboard fingerprint sensor, but 1Password does not recognize it. I can use the keyboard fingerprint sensor to unlock the computer and do everything else it's supposed to do in macOS, but 1Password only offers my Apple Watch to unlock, not the Magic Keyboard with Touch ID. Is this by design, or will 1Password be updated to support the Magic Keyboard with Touch ID when paired with the M1 MacBook? Thanks! 1Password Version: 7.8.6 (70806000) Mac App StoreExtension Version: 7.8.6OS Version: macOS 11.5.1 (20G80)

I am having the same issue. Hopefully this can be fixed soon!

Hello @geezjan and @densign! 👋 Thank you for reporting the issue! Our developers hope to get their hands on a Magic Keyboard soon in order to test and investigate this issue. Until recently the only way to obtain a Magic Keyboard was by buying one of the new M1 Macs. You should still be able to use Touch ID on the keyboard if the Macbook Air's lid is kept open but, while I can't make any promises, I can certainly agree that it would be great to also be able to use Touch ID on the keyboard when it's in "clamshell" mode. I've forwarded your reports to our development team. :) ref: dev/apple/issues#5381

1password is doing something special here to stop this (maybe a lid check ? ) the system security checks works fine with the lid closed other apps which support touchID such as Day One work ok with the lid closed.

@acantril: As soon as our developers can get a Magic Keyboard they will take a look at this. In the meantime, I have let them know that you have also encountered this :+1:

Came here to +1 this issue now Magic Keyboards with Touch ID are available to purchase outside having a new iMac. The issue isn't that the touch ID isn't recognised, it's that when lid is closed it disables touch ID. (Because this couldn't happen before they released these)

1P_Tommy I just downloaded the beta and IT WORKS!!!

I'm on a MacBook Pro (13-inch, M1, 2020) with the new Magic Keyboard with Touch ID. I had a successful 1P unlock using the Magic Keyboard with Touch ID to unlock via the app, Safari extension and Chrome extension.

Thanks for the assist. This is so convenient now!

+1 same issue here. Bought the Magic Keyboard with Touch ID specifically for 1Password so I can keep my M1 MacBook Pro closed and connected to a monitor. Looking forward to this getting fixed!

+1.. using TouchID with 1Password was the main reason I shelled out the $$ to get the new keyboard.
