Touch ID problem. No longer being prompted

iPhone 6
iOS ver 9.2.1
1Password ver. 6.2.1
Sync via iCloud

This problem occurred after the most recent update to the 1Password app.

I start the app. Enter the Master Password. Close the app. Reopen the app and am prompted for the master password again with no Touch ID icon available nor a prompt for Touch ID. Using the 1Password extension in Safari also no longer prompts for Touch ID after entering the Master Password.

The Touch ID option is enabled in the 1Password app.
Restarting the device does not fix the issue.
Deleting and reinstalling the app does not fix the issue.

I've also noticed it takes a few seconds longer before the app prompts for the master password since updating to the most recent version of this app.

Help. This is a major breakage of functionality for me. The main reason I switched from my previous password manager.

1Password Version: 6.2.1
Extension Version: Not Provided
OS Version: 9.2.1
Sync Type: iCloud

    Hi @JonasTheSnowMan

    Sorry to hear about the trouble. Please try this:

    • In 1Password under Settings > Security toggle Touch ID to OFF
    • In the Settings app under Touch ID & Passcode toggle iPhone Unlock to OFF
    • Restart your iPhone (instructions)
    • In the Settings app under Touch ID & Passcode toggle iPhone Unlock to ON
    • Restart your iPhone again
    • In 1Password under Settings > Security toggle Touch ID to ON

    Please let me know how it turns out.

    I'm having the same problem. But the fix above didn't work. Any other options?
