Watchtower score not identical

Hi All,

I have 1Password installed on my Mac, Windows PC and iPhone.

The Watchtower score on my Mac and iPhone is 1190.

The Watchtower score on my Windows PC is 1150.

(A difference of 40 points)

Given I am logged into the same 1Password account on all three devices, shouldn't the Watchtower score be the same across all three? I've checked and there are no un-synced changes or anything... Can anyone suggest what the problem/issue is?

Mac OS 26.0.1
1Password for Mac 8.11.12 (81112027)

---

Windows 11 24H2 (OS Build 26100.6725)
1Password for Windows 8.11.12 (81112027)

iOS 26.0.1
1Password for iOS 8.11.12 (81112027)

    Hello gussic​! 👋

    Thanks for the question! The Watchtower score is calculated per-device and it doesn’t sync between all of your devices. Certain per-device settings (such as whether you have automatic updates turned on for the 1Password app on a device) will also change your score.

    Before we dig deeper can you please check the following:

    1. Are you using multiple accounts (like a work account) on one of your devices? Or are you using collections on one device? 
    2. Are you using the latest version of the 1Password 8 app on all devices: How to keep 1Password up to date 
    3. Do you see different suggestions regarding weak or reused passwords, or inactive two-factor authentication, from Watchtower on different devices? Or are these suggestions the same on all devices?
    4. Have you enabled biometric unlock and automatic updates for 1Password on all devices? 


    I look forward to hearing from you.
