Need a face factor for devices without finger print reader, or for multifactor authentication. Or a external fingerprint reader for devices without a built in reader.

Could desktop apps be recognized and completed with the 1password in addition to the browser?


1Password Version: 5.4.3
Extension Version: Not Provided
OS Version: Ios8
Sync Type: Cloud

  • Hi @new,

    This is something that Apple would have to add in the future to their devices, assuming it would work better than Touch ID.

    There is only so much we can do on the locked down mobile platforms.

    Or a external fingerprint reader for devices without a built in reader.

    At the moment, we do not plan to support third party scanners but we'll look into it in the future. We had something like this in the past but it didn't work out for us.

    As for 1Password on the desktop, we might look into using Touch ID on your iOS devices or the fingerprint scanner on Android devices to unlock 1Password on the desktops.
