To get going, we will need to first enable Touch ID to work with 1Password on macOS. Long story short, make sure you have checked off the compatibility box. And if it is 1.15.x, you are using the 1Password X, which doesn’t work with the fingerprint sensor. Spare me the browser like/dislike commentary.

OperaGX just adds a bunch of tuning controls for GPU, CPU and Tab memory usage. It’s worth noting that the extension should be 4.7.x version, if you are using the required desktop app for macOS. For some reason the Chrome extension is compatible with standard Opera however not with OperaGX It is built on the same Chromium core and any other extensions that I use work on both browsers equally well. Therefore, make sure to use the standard extension if you want to use the fingerprint sensor. To be more precise, unlocking one will unlock the other, ensuring that you don’t have to take the pain of repeating the same action.īear in mind that 1Password X is not compatible with Touch ID.

Thus, once you have set up the password manager to unlock using the fingerprint sensor, the browser extension and the main app will unlock simultaneously. So, how do you set up the 1Password Chrome extension with Touch ID? Well, both the 1Password app for Mac and its Chrome extension work in sync.
