1Password in Lockdown Mode

Thank you, GreyM1P

How does 1Password work (or not work though)? I’d be interested to know. It is my OP for iOS/iPadOS/Android.

State Actors increasingly are using for example Face ID. 1Password can use Face ID if it’s available. I only have Touch ID devices.

Ah, I see. That "Lockdown" is an action, rather than a state. When you tap Lockdown in the power menu, it'll lock the device, won't show any notifications on the lock screen, and will disable biometrics, meaning you'll have to use your PIN, gesture, or password to unlock.

However, once you unlock the device again, all of those features are turned back on.

So although they're both called the same thing, Lockdown Mode on iOS and the Lockdown button in the power menu on Android perform quite different functions.

Hi,

There is a link to Lifewire.

Hold down the phone's Power Button until the screen shows. I don't have any compatible Device now.

"How to Enable Lockdown Mode in Android"
"To enable lockdown mode, you only need to select it from the power options menu."

"Press and hold the power button on the side of your Android phone. Hold it down for a few seconds until the Power Options menu appears."

"Select Lockdown from the options. It is labeled as such under the button, while the button itself has a small padlock icon."

"Lockdown mode is similar to locking your phone, but it does so in a more secure manner."

I'm guessing the latest Android OS/Android Phones have this feature.

I'm not seeing a Lockdown Mode or anything similar on my Pixel 7 Pro. Would you mind letting me know on what device you've seen this? Then we'll be able to take a look and find out more about what limitations it imposes on the device.

Thank you.

Because of the commonality between the different versions of 1Password. I would think the same would apply to Android. I'll ask one the Android folks to chime in to make sure I am thinking correctly.

Has 1Password been tested for Lockdown Mode on Android? I don't have an Android phone which supports Lockdown Mode, my Android phone is an Android 9 phone. However it would be good to know if 1Password 8 can work with Lockdown Mode on Android. Lockdown Mode is available on newer Android phones.

Anytime my friend. 🙂

Thank you, Tommy.

Lockdown mode is not supported by 1Password for Safari. Our developers have looked into this and confirm that 1Password for Safari isn't supported when using Lockdown Mode. Lockdown Mode disables certain features of the Safari browser that our extension requires in order to function.

If you wish to use Lockdown Mode on iOS then you can use Password AutoFill to fill and save passwords: Use 1Password to fill and save in apps and browsers on your iPhone and iPad
