1password always asking to enter decryption password

Hello.

This is [b]very[/b] annoying. Even if I don't close and restart the application - meaning it is still running in memory - when switching applications, the 1p password needs to be reentered.

Imagine the following scenario

1. you go to a page where you have a 2 level authentication - password then a code from a list

2. the page asks you for a username - which is not standard so has to be looked up in 1password

3. open 1password (application starts), have to enter the password. find the username, copy

4. switch to browser, paste username. now need the password

5. switch to 1password (application was already running). [b]have to enter the 1p password[/b]. copy the site password. copy

6. switch to browser, paste password. submit.

7. the site asks for second level authentication, from code card (say number 67)

8. switch to 1password (application was already running). [b]have to enter the 1p password[/b]. find code 67, copy



See for this website, I have to enter the 1p password twice.

Please change it so that 1password stays unlocked for some period while the application is still running in memory...

    Hi there,



    We're working on overhauling the lock system in the 1Password app. There are some issues where Android can *kick out* the apps in the background if there's not enough memory (which can happen on many low-end devices), which is why when you resume the app, it starts asking for the master password.



    Just to be clear, you've already configured 1Password on the Android to use the PIN code, right? This should make it easier to work with by entering the PIN code with the longer auto-lock timer.
