If only companies wouldn't be patronizing ass hats about it. A few sites deny storing passkeys in software wallets because of "security". So what, keep using my password is safer now? Fucktards.
Many websites only allow creating a passkey on mobile for example. I also created passkeys on quite a few sites that straight up removed the feature a few days after. I also never found a site that let you completely remove password authentication after adding a passkey.
Even on mobile they are asshats. I have my password manager registered as the passkey wallet in iOS, so creating a passkey in PayPal for example fails.
PayPal’s passkey implementation really is the worst of all worlds.
Didn't allow me to create one because it doesn't meet the Google's security thing (unlocked bootloader).
Fun
