How does Windows Hello work in 1Password Beta for Windows 10? [Limited to running app state]

I was about to post a feature request for integrating hello security into the app, when by random it popped up asking if I wanted iris or pin auth to unlock 1P.

Been using the app for a few days now and this is the first time I've seen this, what's the intended/expected behavior for this?

P.S. why is there no autofill on the Version input boxes, every time I have to go lookup the app/device version.

Device: 950 XL.


1Password Version: Same as for all the other issues.
Extension Version: Not Provided
OS Version: Also same.
Sync Type: 1P Family

  • Hi @redoz,

    At the moment, Hello support is limited to while the app is running and has been unlocked with the master password once. Once the app auto-locks, it will switch to Hello.

    If you close the app, it will revert to asking for master password. If Windows has terminated it because you're low on memory, it will switch to master password.

    P.S. why is there no autofill on the Version input boxes, every time I have to go lookup the app/device version.

    These are generic text input fields, they're not interconnected with anything, so there's nothing to restore the next time you use it.
