Big Tech companies want to chain your passkey to their products. Enter Proton Pass, which allows you to manage and use passkeys across all devices seamlessly.
  • Big Tech has implemented passkeys in a way that locks users into their platforms rather than providing universal security
  • Passkeys were developed to replace passwords for better account security, but their rollout by Apple and Google has limited their potential
  • Proton Pass offers passkeys that are universal, easy to use, and available to everyone for improved online security and privacy.

    I can’t imagine being a normal consumer and wanting to set them up.

    It’s quite simple on iOS. IIRC, when logging into the paypal website you get a prompt asking if you’d like to use passkeys. Accept that, then you get a keychain prompt asking if you’d like to make/use a passkey. Click continue and pass FaceID authentication, then you’re in with a passkey. For future logins you click the login with passkey and it faceIDs you in. It’s easy.

        I’m not saying it’s good, I’m saying it’s easy. It is not hard for normal consumers to setup.

        Go to site->change password->use whatever you want moving forward.

        Passwords are not a great way to lock in users unless they’re are completely unmotivated to change services, in which case - iOS passkey or not - it’s all moot.
