Apple Watch Is Sorta' Unlocking 1PW8

I am on a M1 Mac Mini...so Touch ID not a possibility with my Logitech keyboard. So, when I start the 1PW unlock process, I get the main app window with place to enter my master p/w and a touch ID...

I just saw this topic, so if a mod can https://1password.community/discussion/122631/apple-watch-unlock-is-no-longer-automatic#latest that would be great.

With the current release today, I too now see the Watch icon which is a step in the right direction. However, on my Intel Based Mac mini, I too am having issues with it.

  1. Automatic triggering does not occur when I attempt to unlock.
  2. When I try the workaround mentioned above (hitting return to trigger the Watch Unlock) I would note that it actually still keeps focus on the password field, which means the prompt cannot be quickly exited (for example, if you hit the Esc key, it doesn't close the watch prompt) so this isn't a great workaround for long term.
