I searched here on the sub but couldn’t find anything on the FAQ so I’ll post this here.
One of the deal breakers for me is the Apple Watch unlocking my Mac and perhaps being able to use it with the Mac, rather than Touch ID, to unlock other things like payments, passwords and things like that on the Mac (the latter don’t even know if it’s possible).
When I open my Mac’s (M2 - Sonoma) System Settings, on Touch ID and Passwords, I’ve read there’s supposed to be an Apple Watch unlocking session to the right. That doesn’t appear to me on the Mac. The watch is connected to my iPhone, both with the same Apple ID and on the same network. Am I missing something?
That’s weird 🙁
Should work. Mine does on my 2019 iMac and my M1 MacBook Pro.
Do you have a passcode on your watch? Do you have wi-fi and bluetooth enabled on the Mac?
If possible in your region, get in touch with Apple Support. They are usually very helpful.
That’s what I did. We ran a few tests but I haven’t had the time to stop and unpair the watch and reset the whole thing up. What is weird is that last night it started unlocking my iPhone, which is a good sign. So let’s see how today goes lol.
