1P8 - No unlock with Apple Watch
Hi All
Running the latest beta of 1P8 (still dislike the Electron frontend but anyway) - unlock with Apple Watch seems to have disappeared?
Running macOS 12 B7 and 1P8 8.2.2 // 80202080
TouchID unlock works fine, just not Apple Watch?
1Password Version: 8.2.2. // 80202080
Extension Version: 2.1.2
OS Version: macOS 12.00 b 7

Hi @eddimello
Does your Mac have a Secure Enclave? A list of Macs which do is available here:

I have 1PW 8.4 and also can't unlock with my Apple Watch. I've already tried everything, like turning it on and off, rebooting, etc. And as some indicate, other programs and the MacBook itself work with the Watch. Does anyone have any suggestions, because that's just such a nice feature.

Im on 1PW 8.2.2 and unlocking with Apple Watch works without a problem.
You can find the toggle under Settings -> Security -> Apple Watch.I did have this enabled, just the prompt wasn't appearing on my Apple Watch, despite appearing for other things (unlocking System Prefs etc). Tried disabling and re-enabling the system level control for it - that didn't work.
Did P4sca1's suggestion of toggling the Apple Watch option help? Please let us know.
It didn't unfortunately, but 8.4.0 seems to have made it work? Very strange.
Thanks to both of you for checking in/following up.
