Master password required far too often

I find I need to use the master password way too often, perhaps every week, even when the machine hasn't restarted. Anyone know how to reduce it? If I need to carry the password with me constantly it defeats the whole purpose of 1password.

1Password Version: Version 7.9.2 (70902005)
Extension Version: Not Provided
OS Version: MacOS 12.2.1 (21D62)

    Hello @GSi! 👋

    You can set 1Password for Mac to only require your account password once every 2 weeks by following these steps:

    1. Open and unlock 1Password for Mac.
    2. Click on 1Password 7 next to the  in the menu bar.
    3. Click on Preferences.
    4. Click on Security.
    5. Set "Require Master Password every" to 2 Weeks.

    Let me know if that helps. 😊
