2 years agoThank you for the reply and I'm sorry for the delay in responding. The test confirms that Apple Watch unlock is working with macOS system prompts and so we'll need to dig deeper to see what might be going wrong with 1Password. Before we do so can you try the following steps:
- Disable Apple Watch Unlock in 1Password for Mac (1Password > Settings > Security > Uncheck "Apple Watch"). (If you don’t see the Apple Watch option in 1Password then skip this step.)
- Disable Apple Watch Unlock for your Mac (In the MacOS menu bar:  > System Settings > Touch ID & Password > Uncheck your Apple Watch under "Use your Apple Watch to unlock your applications and your Mac")
- Turn off your Mac.
- Restart your Apple Watch: Restart your Apple Watch - Apple Support
- Turn on your Mac.
- Enable Apple Watch Unlock for your Mac (In the MacOS menu bar:  > System Settings > Touch ID & Password > Check your Apple Watch under "Use your Apple Watch to unlock your applications and your Mac")
- Enable Apple Watch Unlock in 1Password for Mac (1Password > Settings > Security > Check "Apple Watch").
If that still doesn't resolve the issue then let me know and I can help further.
