Passkeys will show up in Gboard on Android 15 and come to Wear OS 5
At I/O 2024, Google's work on passwords continues with a simpler sign-in process, as well as platform updates to Android 15 and Wear OS ...Kyle Morris (Breaking News)
While I was hopeful for #passkeys for a while, the reality at this point in time is not looking so great. What I see is fragmentation and confusion mostly caused by the big tech players.
Two examples:
- #amazon allows to create passkeys but for unknown reasons block #Firefox from passkey creation. Can anybody explain why would they do that in may 2024?
- #Apple situation for #AppleID as per https://passkeys.directory/details/apple/: "You are not yet able to save passkeys for Apple ID accounts in third-party credential managers and can only be stored in iCloud Passwords at this time."
which means I can't create a passkey in #KeePassXC which is the password manager I love and use.
Having a hard time finding good reasons for such a fragmented and poor user experience. Since the way #Google implemented passkeys allows for flawless creation and usage of passkeys in Firefox and KeePassXC there really can't be any good reasons for amazon and Apple to behave so poorly. So what's the explanation? Intentional #LockIn and malicious intent?
Please enlighten me 💡
