in the end, unlocks super fast but between setting up 2FA (my fault I suppose, long in the tooth to do but there was an absurd grace period between wanting to enable 2FA and waiting before I was able to) but syncing between iPhone and mac, ironically there is no install process piece from the watch itself haha aside from it being the tool that unlocks your mac,
had to reboot all devices to have it show up in system preferences too, but the 9to5mac Jeff Benjamin tutorial walked me through absolute hell.
they could do way better, come on apple! it reminds me of apple tv4 set up without remote app on iphone at launch a major oversight like wondering if any apple tv engineers actually used it themselves, and one horizontal line to smack letters between to get all the app accounts on there. went from really excited to frustrated in no time,
half baked implementation but once its set up, its friggin sweet!
i wasn't even sure which sub forum to complain about this in, but apple watch being the involved element i figure whatever,
this is the perfect example of why Apple's UX has deteriorated over the years, this is a prohibitive set up process!
