Created an account not to just +1 this issue, but after getting so annoyed by critical ux bugs in 1P8 and seeing all of them reported here by numerous users, all remain unfixed 3+ YEARS later. I knew the switch to electron was going to be bad, but I thought you guys would care enough to figure it out.

Trust me, I want to use 1P7 as my main experience, but I am forced to use 8 because I use Zen Browser (see other thread asking for official support for over a year).

Seeing the age of all of these issues [yet another electron app, no zen browser support, no yubikey to unlock support (don't link that dusty special private beta), updating the app regularly produces a blank window after unlock (only fix to to fully uninstall and re-install), wake from lock not recognizing watch, etc..] I think it's finally clear, time to look for alternatives ((-_-))

I'm sorry that you're also running into issues with unlocking 1Password using your Apple Watch. Can you tell me a little more about the specific issue with Apple Watch that you're running into? Are you also not seeing the option to unlock 1Password using your Apple Watch after waking your Mac from sleep? 

updating the app regularly produces a blank window after unlock (only fix to to fully uninstall and re-install)

That definitely isn't right. Does this happen after every update? Are you using the stable version of 1Password? Or the beta/nightly?
