    Hi there @pathfinder76

    We use iCloud Keychain to store a form of your Emergency Kit so that if you're signed in to the same Apple ID on each device, then yes, you'll only have to enter your 1Password account password to sign in.

    You should always keep a copy of your Emergency Kit somewhere safe outside your Apple ID as well, just in case you couldn't access your Apple ID for some reason.

    Hope that helps. Please let me know if you have any questions, or would like any further help. :)
