Hi 1P_PeterG,

I use 1Password on two Mac that support unlocking with my AppleWatch. I see this issue far more frequently on my iMac (no TouchID) than on my MacBook Pro (which offers TouchID).
As a side note, I find the UI a bit unclear too. On my MacBook Pro (with TouchID), I see the TouchID logo when I need to unlock, but no mention whatsoever to AppleWatch. I know I can use it because the Watch itself vibrates and presents a prompt asking me whether I want to unlock. Could 1Password tell me I can use my watch to unlock as well?

Let em know if you need any additional information.
