New in Beta: App Unlock Presets + Unlock with Device for Mac

Question

Hey everyone. We’ve got two exciting new features ready for you to preview in 1Password for Mac (Beta release channel). 🎉🔒 App Unlock PresetsA new Security Review section in the sidebar lets you quickly review and update how and when 1Password locks on your Mac. Choose from a selection of optimized presets: Convenient, Balanced, or Strict, or fine-tune settings to match how you actually use your device.🖥️ Unlock with DeviceWhen enabled, 1Password will lock when your Mac locks, and unlock when you unlock your Mac. (No extra prompts!) It uses built-in macOS platform security to make your workflow smoother and keep your data safe."Unlock with device" is enabled by default in two of the new presets. You can switch presets or adjust individual settings anytime in Settings &gt; Security.What’s next?Our goal is to make 1Password work the way you do: less fiddling with settings, fewer interruptions to your workflows, and the same high level of security you expect. So we're going to roll out the new unlock experience to everyone over the course of the summer.✅ Windows, Android, iOS, and web✅ Support for Team and Business accounts✅ Extensive admin controls for team-wide auto-lock settings👉 We’d love your feedback, especially on Unlock with Device!To try out the Mac beta: choose Settings &gt; Advanced &gt; Release channel &gt; Beta, and then choose About &gt; Check for Updates.These features are currently only available in Beta for Individual + Family accounts on Mac (not Business accounts — yet!)

1Password for Mac 8.11.0 (81100017) These options don't appear to be present.

I think it would really help to clarify this new feature if you could just post a table with the 3 presets (Most Convenient, Balanced and Strict) and the default value for each preset (Unlock, Unlock with Device and Auto-Lock).&nbsp; It's just a simple 2 dimensional table, but it would go a long way in improving understanding.&nbsp; Thanks.

Updated to "81082027, on BETA channel", can't see any of these options. I have a family account.&nbsp;Looking forward to these new options — the current number of password prompts is just silly

Options showed up after a full reboot of the Mac.&nbsp;
