Quick Access doesn't work unless 1Password is in the menubar

I just found that I have to have "Keep 1Password in the menu bar" checked in order for Quick Access to work when the main 1Password app isn't running. Please reconsider this.

I keep my menu bar free of app clutter, but always want 1Password available by using a global keyboard shortcut. This was possible with v7 & 1Password Mini. I hope you reinstate this with v8.

1Password Version: 8.7.0

    Hello @skatch! 👋

    At the moment, the "Keep 1Password in the menu bar" option has to remain enabled for 1Password 8 to run in the background so that it can respond to keyboard shortcuts and open Quick Access. That being said, we have an internal work item open to look into adding the ability to hide the menubar icon in the future. I've added your comment to the internal work item so that our developers are aware that you'd like to see this feature added to 1Password 8.

    Thank you for the feedback! 😊
