So, I've got my hackintosh running Sierra and have the "Product Name" set to an iMac (14,2) in Clover Configurator. My systems is about 18 monhts old and runs a GA-Z97X-UD7 TH motherboard.

The nvidia web drivers are a bit squirrelly (I have two nvidia cards running three monitors) - some things just don't look right, and I needed to patch my sound kext, but other than that, everything seems fine.

"About this Mac" shows it's set as a "Late 2013" iMac. Bluetooth works fine. I now want to be able to unlock the hackintosh with my Apple Watch, just like I can with my Macbook - but the option doesn't show up.

Anybody have watch unlock working properly that can provide some pointers?

Thanks!
 
There was a post on r/hackintosh of some guy having it work.

I think as long as you have Handoff working correctly for FaceTime/Safari/Etc. it should technically work since it's using Bluetooth
 
I have handoff and continuity working correctly but am unable to get apple watch to unlock. I see the checkbox in security but after I turn it on it doesnt actually work. can you link that ****** article? I searched around but wasnt able to find it.
 
AlphaFox I have exactly same problem as you. I'm using Dell Lattitude e7450 with replaced Dw1560, running latest Sierra 10.12.1, Clover.
