ModeratorHello kennyvl! 👋
I'm sorry that 1Password is prompting you to unlock more often than expected. On iOS and iPadOS, 1Password relies on an Apple technology called iOS Password AutoFill to fill and save logins in other apps. Our implementation of this technology currently requires that you unlock for every fill attempt. However, this is something that our developers are working to improve and I'll let them know that you'd like to be prompted to unlock less often when filling login credentials.
If you're using Safari on your iPhone and iPad then you can use our browser extension to fill logins (rather than using iOS AutoFill) without having to unlock each time. You can find more information here: Get to know 1Password for Safari on your iPhone or iPad
You mentioned that you're not prompted to unlock each time on iOS, is it possible that you're already using 1Password for Safari there? I look forward to hearing from you.
