4 years agoFaceID not available in IOS Safari Extension (version8)
https://1password.community/discussion/comment/662954/#Comment_662954
.
In 1Password 8 I don’t seem to be able to use FaceID anymore to log in with the safari extension. Am I missing something or is this not possible anymore? Pretty annoying to be honest.
FaceID is enabled and I can use it in the 1 Password app itself.

FWIW I removed the beta and installed the App Store version and now FaceID unlock is working again

Updating IOS from 16.1 to 16.2 resolved the issue. I can now unlock the Safari extension with FaceID.

I’m finding that FaceID doesn’t work on the first unlock, even if the main app has unlocked at least once with it. Is this due to the extension and the app running under different app identities and hence unable to use the same SEP unlock policies? Anyway, the point is that it’s frustrating :)

initially it worked fine (after re-installing the app), after a few weeks it stopped working again, and I had to re-install the app again
quite annoying actually - MirvSuper Contributor
Wow, uninstalling/reinstalling the app (via TestFlight) actually worked for me too! Thanks @Mosabon

Had to uninstall and reinstall the app on iPhone to get back FaceID!

V8.9.9 (80909016)/ RC1 candidate broke the Biometric unlock for the Safari extension on my iPhone 11 and iPad 8th gen

Yep same for me. Leaving Autofill on allows the key icon to remain there. It’s a decent workaround (again).

The latest v8 is a regression. I have to constantly type my password into the safari extension. What happened? Doesn’t matter if I’m on the release version or beta of 1PW8. Please fix this again.

Same, also on 8.9.9 (RC1) and not working anymore. Had a week or so where things seemed perfect.
