Request: Unique PIN for unlock
This discussion was created from comments split from: Feature Request: PIN code to unlock.
Hi 1P_Timothy ,
Glad to hear device PIN access was added, but that feature completely misses what most people in this thread actually wanted, which was the same unique PIN functionality that is in 1Password 7.
FaceID is not secure enough, our 1Password account passwords are far too long and complex to use, and our device PINs are often known by friends and family. Therefore the only viable option for us is the unique PIN feature.
In 1Password 7, if the unique PIN is entered incorrectly just once, you have to enter your full 1Password account password. This makes the unique PIN option very secure and the preferred unlock method for many users.
I will be using 1Password 7 until the unique PIN feature is introduced in version 8. And truthfully, if the feature is not introduced to version 8 and users are forced to upgrade the app, I will move to a different vaulting vendor.
I really hope the dev team over there is listening and reinstates this vital feature back into 1Password 8.
Thank you,
Jonathan
