App no longer locking? [1Password auto-lock timer starts as soon as you stop using keyboard/mouse]

Odd behavior with ver 6.2.328d since this morning: The app has been unlocked since about 11 am - I've been able to switch back to 1P from other open applications, and it's open, waiting for me to search for an entry or login to one visible on the screen.

Question: isn't the app supposed to lock automatically after 5-10 minutes of no usage?

Thanks

    @southernforge: It depends on your settings. If you go to 1Password Settings > Options > Security, what do you have Auto-Lock set to currently?

  • Hi @southernforge,

    Just to be clear, it is 10 minutes of computer usage, not 1Password usage. In other words, you must stop using your keyboard and mouse for 10 minutes before it auto-locks.

    Ahhh ... good explanation, @MikeT - and thank you for asking me to verify in-app settings, @brenty - this makes sense: the app never locked while using the computer - but if I walked away for 15 minutes, it had locked... thanks!

  • I'm glad it is clear now and you're welcome.
