3 supercool ways to control your Mac with your Apple Watch

You already know your Apple Watch has awesome health and fitness features, but you might not know that it can also help you use and control your Mac. From unlocking the Mac to controlling apps and music, you can enlist the aid of your watch when your mouse isn’t within reach.

UNLOCK YOUR MAC

To unlock your Mac with your Apple Watch, your devices must meet certain hardware and software requirements (fave. co/2TNk0fc). To check whether your system is compatible, hold down the Option key, click the Apple menu icon in the top left corner, and select System Information. Select the Wi-Fi tab under Network. Then find Interfaces and make sure it says that Auto Unlock is supported.
