After following instructions for IOS to enable the 1Password Extension, when I go to a login page (any from my vault), and hit the share button, the 1Password "lock" icon shows briefly and then opens to a grey screen. This hangs.

This does not happen if I set the security to "Lock on Exit", but then I have to re-enter the Master Password every time I use the extension.

1Password 6.4.2
IOS 9.3.2
Sync: Families

    I have a related problem.
    1Password 6.4.2
    IOS 9.3.2
    Sync: Families

    1. If I set security on 1Password to "lock on exit" then I have to continuously re-enter the Master Password whenever I use the extension
    2. If I turn off "lock on exit" then when I use the extension, 1Password opens, the lock icon appears to open, but I get a grey screen that hangs. When this happens I have to swipe Safari away and restart.

    @gerhardpratt thanks for letting us know! It looks like one of my colleagues has started following up there, so we'll keep the conversation to email just so we have everything in one place :)

    I have a related (or maybe same?) problem as well on iOS 9 (latest) and latest 1Password for iOS 9.

    In order to be able to switch between 1Password and other apps to copy and paste information I disabled "lock on exit" and set a timeout after which the master password needs to be re-entered.

    Now, if I use the Safari extension, unlock it with the master password, but then before the timeout triggers, I try to use the Safari extension again, I get a grey screen instead of seeing 1Password.

    @mattsch: That's definitely the same issue. We had a fix for this but it turns out it broke some other things. For now the only workaround is to enable Lock on Exit, but we're hoping to find a better solution in he future. I'm sorry for the inconvenience. :(

    I have the same problem on my iPad mini AND my iPhone 5, both with IOS 10.2.
    But on my husband's iPhone 6 there is NO problem! He has Touch Id active, so he does not normally have Lock on Exit deactivated, but he has tried both with and without Lock on Exit active - no problem with using the extension!

    @liseb: Yeah, it isn't clear why this is only happening to some people with Lock on Exit disabled. Does enabling it help on either of your devices?

    It does, but it is not an option, really.
    Will any solution be advice here?

    @liseb: At this time there are only two ways around this issue: enabling Lock on Exit, or using 1Browser within 1Password itself. I'm sorry I don't have a better answer for you. Hopefully we'll be able to find what's causing this to happen on some devices.

    Just a quick update here. We have a fix for this in the latest beta, so if all goes well it should make it into a stable release soonish. Cheers! :)
