    I was just wondering if it would be possible to use TouchID on an iPhone with Continuity or some other service to unlock 1Password.
    It would significantly increase the convenience and security of 1P for me. (Who cares what the password is, I have my fingerprint)

    Ive seen a couple other suggestions like this in the forums. Its an intriguing idea.

    ps. When I locate it I am going to merge the requests to keep them all in one place.

    I thought the same and due to the dialogue box disappearing. I went ahed and found the the 2nd topic and selected it. The dialogue reappeared and was read to merge. I figure you experienced the same.

    BTW Good catch that was the thread I was referring to. :)

    @thightower‌ yes, I found the other topic, added the URL of this one, went ahead to merge...and absolutely nothing happened. I tried a few times then gave up for fear of wrecking the entire board. :)

    Haha! I'm sure I've done much worse, @Stephen_C. :)

    @Peterkoelbl, @aGWkZ2zxGdP4Lb, @CodingPanic‌, and @thightower‌: I'm not sure of the technical feasibility of it, but I know it's something that has come up before. I'll make sure your votes get counted!
