What's the Passkey relationship to PIN iOS access?
If Passkey access via biometrics fails it falls back to using the simple (4 digit in my case) PIN. So if someone sees me enter my PIN and then gets physical access to my phone they can access my Pass...

Thanks for the question! Are you referring to using a passkey saved in 1Password to sign into a different website or app? Or are you referring to signing into 1Password itself using a passkey? The latter is only available in beta at the moment and isn't available for regular accounts protected using an account password and Secret Key.
If you're referring to using a passkey, saved in 1Password, to sign into a different website or app then you'll always need to use either Face ID/Touch ID or your account password to unlock 1Password before that passkey can be used. The only exception to this is if you've enabled device passcode unlock which is an optional feature: Use your device passcode, PIN, or pattern to unlock 1Password
I look forward to hearing from you.
