Master password after reboot

Is 1P supposed to ask for the master password after a reboot? Or will it now accept Touch ID? The latter seems to be the case. I no longer have to enter the master password after rebooting the system as was my recollection in previous versions. Is this correct?

    Hey Tom,

    1Password should allow you to unlock using Touch ID even after a reboot. However, there are some settings you can adjust to change the amount of time in between requiring the Master Password to be entered again by going to 1Password > Preferences from the menu bar, and clicking on Security.

    There's a more detailed support article about that here and more scenarios when it'll ask anyway further down on the same page.

    @TomWolsky - @AdamP is entirely correct; adjust the settings to your liking, and let us know if you have any questions! :)

    Thank you both. Guess recollection was wrong, that 1P required master password after reboot.
