The feature is not present in the mobile apps while using version 8. I would be more than happy to let the team know this is important to you.

Please let them know. If I had know this functionality would be lost, I would not have upgraded. I have no intention of using face id. I will stop recommending 1Password.

You can return to 1Password 7 if you wish. Redownload apps and games from Apple - Apple Support

This is a problem for me as well. On the iPad mini 4, I don't use Touch ID because it's not reliable for me. (My fingerprint seems to change based on time of day and humidity. I gave up trying to get it to work consistently.) I don't mind using the iPad's numeric passcode to unlock, but entering the 1P8 master password multiple times a day is a deal breaker on the iPad since the password contains upper and lower case and symbols. Please allow 1P8 to be unlocked with the iPad's numeric passcode!

In the meantime, I reinstalled 1P7 and deleted 1P8. Thanks for the reminder on how to reinstall it. If 1P7 goes away, I'll have to find another password manager that works on all my devices.

Update: I found a reasonable work-around. I stored my 1P8 email address and master password in the iCloud Keychain for 1password.com. I also set 1P8 to Auto-Lock after the maximum 8 hours.
Since iOS is configured to allow Autofill Passwords from iCloud Keychain, I can autofill the 1P8 master password without having to type it in every time.

Hello @owenw4rd,

Thanks for your update and letting us know this is a problem for you as well. I've included your vote for the return of this feature within the request we have filed with the product team.

I need pin passcode on iphone. Above specified icloud keychain work around is of no use to me. Please let me know here if you are not going to reinstate passcode..

Seconding this - I will never use face ID and just upgraded to 1P 8…very disappointed to see the passcode option is gone.

quietconundrum

chiming in on this, too... I will never use FaceID and the quick custom pin code access to 1PW when switching between apps is absolutely crucial. I cannot rationalize why you would force this feature into obsolescence and limit assisted auth to only FaceID. please restore the accessibility and efficiency of 1PW by including this feature in version 8. I cannot reasonably use version 8 until this option is available.

Hi all,

Sorry for the delay and thanks for the additional feedback. I've included your votes letting the team know this is important and would like to see in 1Password 8 for iOS.
