Yesterday I was unpleasantly surprised by the fact that all my mobile devices requested me to enter my master pw at once. The same 32-char pw I keep in 1Password! I had to use my wife’s iPhone!

I honestly have not read a single valid argument why the option to only require a person to enter the master pw after reboot, an option available for mobile devices, was removed. In 1Password 7 this feature was disabled by default and more or less hidden so accidental use was unlikely. As stated by one of the other posters, 1Password advices you to print your security info during the onboarding process so in case of disaster you can still use that as a fallback to access to you pw vault.
