What are people’s experiences of using an Apple Watch to auto-unlock a Mac?

Hello,

Anyone out there setup their Macs to auto unlock with the Apple watch? I know you need to enable vault for this to work.

I’ll get to it eventually but I was wondering if anyone has done so and if it’s working well.

Hi,

I use my watch all the time to unlock my Mac. I've had no problem with it.
