Was excited to use touch id with 1password, and put all my password in their, have always been using touch id to unlock it for past 10 days or so, today got the prompt to enter master password...you guessed it, I forgot the master password...obviouslydumb mistake for me to not write it down immediately after creating that super long master password, but since I still own my phone, and have touch id setup, is there anyway I can unlock it with touch id? Thanks.

    AFAIK, No. Once the system defaults back to the Master Password request thats the only way to gain access (by supplying the Master Password)

    Hi @John Yang,

    @thightower is correct, at this point you would need to enter the master password in order to unlock the app. In case it helps, please take a look at the tips in this guide: Master Password not accepted

    If you cannot remember the master password, unfortunately, you will need to restore from a backup or start over. Both of these steps are documented in the guide.
