Where does 1password save the master password when TouchID is enabled?

wooki

Hello,

I'm particularly curious about testing TouchID on iOS for easier unlocking the vault. Nevertheless, I am bit concerned about safety of the master password.

If I enable TouchID, is the password saved somewhere in the phone or does the application clone the vault so that there are two versions: one secured by master password and one by "fingerprint" from TouchID? So that in the latter case, there is no need of storing the master password in the memory of phone.

I should have kept on looking for the answer for a bit longer before writing here. It seems like I have found all I needed here: https://guides.agilebits.com/kb/security/en/topic/touch-id-pin-code-and-ios-keychain
