2 years agoHi jeffer23, thanks for your question.
To help reduce the frequency your password is required I would suggest changing the Auto-Lock frequency. Some devices also have a "lock", "pin" or "Keep open" option that can help prevent system features like battery optimization from closing 1Password in the background.
To change the Auto-Lock frequency:
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.
The "lock", "pin" or "Keep open" settings show up in slightly different places depending on the device but are usually available when interacting with an app icon or window in the Recents menu. For example on a Samsung device:
1. Open 1Password.
2. Open the Recents menu on your device (swipe up or tap |||).
3. Tap the 1Password icon above the 1Password window.
4. Tap "Keep Open".
Let us know if that helps and thanks again!
