2 minute time out setting 1PASSWORD

Once I login to 1PASSWORD, it seems like I am required to login again...if it is longer than 2 minutes. Can this time be adjusted, or better yet, disabled if you have biometric facial login?

    Hi @jesse487, thanks for writing in.

    By default, 1Password for Android will lock after two minutes of inactivity. This can be extended up to 8 hours from security settings:
    1. Open and unlock 1Password for Android.
    2. Tap the account or collection icon.
    3. Tap Settings > Security.
    4. Tap Auto-Lock on Exit and select your preferred time.

    I'd also like to note there are a few situations where 1Password will lock before the set time. If you restart your device, close 1Password completely, directly lock the app, or if the device shuts down 1Password in the background, you will be required to unlock the app when you next return.

    Let us know if you have any questions or if there's anything we can help with!
