    I've just updated my iPad to iPadOS 15, updated 1Password to 7.8. I've enabled the Safari extension. Face ID is enabled and the app has been unlocked with the Master Password.

    When I click on the 1Password icon in the Safari address bar, I'm seeing this

    (Having a UUID appear looks really weird.)

    I can tap on the Face ID icon and a pop-up window appears asking if I want to sign in. If I tap on Continue, Face ID happens and 1Password unlocks.

    Is that how this is supposed to work?

    Hi telephoneman2

    There sure is. 😁 Once you've unlocked with your Master Password the first time subsequent unlocks should happen via Touch ID / Face ID if enabled within the 1Password app, until you restart the device etc.

    I hope that helps!
