1Password 7.7 for Mac can be unlocked with Apple Watch (blog.1password.com) 2 points by linux2647 5y ago ↗ HN
[–] ykat7 5y ago ↗ > One of our most highly requested features, Apple Watch can now unlock 1Password on any Mac with a Secure Enclave.I'm curious how 1Password achieved this as (afaik) Apple hasn't exposed an "Unlock with Apple Watch" API to third parties. [–] ykat7 5y ago ↗ TIL. It looks like 1Password stores the key in the Secure Enclave and uses the "watch" constraint [0] to access it. This triggers the "Approve with Apple Watch" prompt [1].[0] https://developer.apple.com/documentation/security/secaccess...[1] https://i.1password.com/media/mac-apple-watch-prompt.png
