1P in Safari has been working well for me on both iPhone and iPad since the 16.1/8.9.7 updates. Then suddenly it stopped working again on iPhone (iPad unaffected) — no biometric option to unlock and Reauthorize After setting not respected, so had to enter master password for every attempted use. The iOS 16.1.1 update did not immediately resolve it. I followed the troubleshooting advice from 1P_Dave (above), however due to my settings the steps were slightly different. This restored full extension unlocking functionality 👍
My steps were:
1. Restart your iOS device.
2. Open the main 1Password app using your account password FaceID as Require password is set to Never.
3. Switch to another app.
4. Switch back to 1Password. Are you able to unlock the app using Face ID/Touch ID? No biometrics or password required as Auto-Lock on Exit timer had not passed/expired.
5. Manually locked the main 1Password app.
6. Immediately entered master password to unlock app.
7. If the answer to question 4 is yes, open Safari and try to fill a login using 1Password extension.
