Safari Extension Started Asking For Password For Every Auto Fill [SOLVED]

.
I've been using 1P8 for some time without any auto fill issues. All of a sudden today, the iOS Safari Extension started wanting me to manually enter my password for an auto fill anytime Safari was closed and re-opened. I've always had the "Authorize After" Safari Extension setting set to "1 Week".
I tried disabling the Safari Extension, rebooting the phone and reenabling the Safari Extension. I then tried disabling auto fill on both 1P8 and iOS settings, rebooting the phone and then reenabling. Neither of which worked. I ended up having to completely uninstall and reinstall of 1P8, which was annoying, and that worked.
Is there anything else that can be done if this happens again? Is this a known issue?
1Password Version: 8.9.3
Extension Version: Not Provided
OS Version: iOS 15.6.1
Browser:_ Safari

1P_Tommy - Same as more_cowbell here. Latest update causes the extension to lock if you quit Safari. I'm about done with this. You guys need a Snow Leopard release. Slow down and fix things before rolling out new features.

1P_Tommy this latest update release today has made this issue worse. Every time I leave and come back to Safari I’m having to enter my password. Why is this so hard to fix?!?!?!?!?

The team is investigating. We're looking to get the issue resolved as soon as possible.

We hope to make everyone happy with the biometric return. I am afraid however that we don't have any sort of time line to provide.

1 week seems to work fine for me too, I've never been prompted to enter a password for weeks now.
Are biometrics coming back eventually to the iOS Safari extension?
It feels a bit silly that the native iOS autofill prompt requires FaceID but the extension lets you autofill anyway without any checks.
Any timeline 1P_Dave ?

After changing the option on 10/1 to Reauthorize after 1 week instead of the 2 weeks - my safari extension has remained unlocked.
Maybe there is an issue with the 2 weeks option?

Same problem here with 1password 8 and ipadOS 15. super annoying. TBH 1password has so many of these issues and it‘s not getting better. I‘m using 1p for years now but the apps are just so buggy I‘m very frustrated. Instead of fixing all the issues, we get a new webapp where the maturity and quality starts from the beginning.

I’ve had better luck so far with setting it to 1 week instead of 2 weeks. I set it to 1 week the other day and so far it’s still unlocked. Who knows now what is going on.

Still happening to me. Yesterday it lasted hours. I woke up this morning and had to enter my password again.
I submitted a support request and sent my diagnostic report.

baggend this is not a fix or workaround on either of my iOS devices. Still entering my password pretty much every time.
