Feature/apple watch support

[tqml]

I changed the LAPolicy flags so authentication is possible with TouchID or Apple Watch (closes #5337 ). This feature requires at least Catalina (10.15) so I added an availability check which only enables it on Catalina and newer.

Testing strategy

This PR should only be a draft to see if the simple approach works. Unfortunately I'm not able to test it. I suspect the problem is because of missing code signing (the original TouchID only implementation doesn't work for me either)

Any hints are much appreciated!

Type of change

• ✅ New feature (change that adds functionality)

Awesome, now to setup that iWatch I bought to test this...

And yes, you need to sign the app to get sec controls to work on Catalina ÷

Nice to see that you have an approach to use the apple watch to unlock keepassxc. 👍

I tried using this but I couldn't get the watch unlock feature to work on the Mac at all, even in the lock screen. Anyone have pointers on this? I disabled touchid and it still won't prompt for watch unlock.

You've enabled "Use your Apple Watch to unlock apps and your Mac" in Security and Privacy Settings? I've also encountered problems with USB 3.0 devices connected to my Mac and the Apple Watch unlock feature; it has to do with radio interference caused by the high speed signaling, if you can believe it. Try it with nothing connected to your laptop (I assume since you mentioned TouchID). Looking forward to this feature!

Yah I enabled that setting, maybe I needed to reboot?

Only other thing I can think of is to make sure you're properly logged into the same iCloud account on both iPhone and Mac, but I would imagine you wouldn't be able to enable the setting if that wasn't true already.

Just built this to test it but didn't work for me. I can't sign the app properly, so it may be a side effect of that. I enabled TouchID for the database (I'm assuming the watch unlock follows the same code path) but it didn't seem to work, and the "TouchID for Quick Unlock" is always unchecked, even after correctly unlocking the database.

You need to sign the app to make touchid work

That is a nice approach for all mac users without TouchID. Like to see this in the future.
