How do I use mini but keep main app locked?

I want to keep the mini unlocked all the time, but require the password to open the main app in the dock. This way I can use command+\ to log onto sites but no one can see confidential details in the main app without entering the password. How do I do that? Thanks.

    Hi @EbinezerCodham,

    There are no separate lock settings for the Mini - it shares the same lock settings as the main app (which you can set in 1Password > Preferences > Security.)

    I do have a bit of an option for you though: because 1Password Mini is capable of working even with the main app closed, you can change your overall lock settings to be a bit more lenient and allow for longer unlock periods while you use the Mini and just leave the main app closed until you need it.

    Keep in mind though that as long as the Mini is unlocked, the main app can be accessed directly through the Mini without the need to enter the Master Password.
