How to turn off Master Password request for every use in a session

Every time I request a password for a login 1P requires that I reenter my master password. For instance, today I attempted to enter a password protected site I hadn't visited in a while. 1P asked for my Master Password (MP for short.) The site rejected the password. I tried a second time, 1P asked for MP. Rejected. I found my correct password on a scrap of paper. Went to 1P to edit and it asked for my MP. Edited the password and went to the site to log in and 1P asked for my MP. That's four times I had to type in my MP. I should be able to control some of that like maybe don't lock for five minutes or something. Checking bank balances bank sites ask for user ID on one page and password on a second page. I shouldn't have to enter my MP to login to one site.

In settings, Lock on exit is off, Auto Lock is 1 hour and says in a note underneath the setting "Your MP will be required after 1 hour of being unused" for me it is required after 1 second.

Help.

Thanks

    Hi @saucyworchester,

    Sorry to hear about the trouble with the auto-lock settings. Do you have a PIN or Touch ID enabled for the device itself? 1Password can only store the Master Password in the iOS keychain (which is what is required to keep 1Password unlocked) if the device itself is protected.

    Thanks!
