"But here's a little secret: You don't need to know all those details. You can reap the security benefit from passkeys by following one simple rule: If a website or app offers you the chance to create a passkey, just say yes. Use your face or your fingerprint or a PIN to prove your identity, and you're good to go."
"Passkeys made simpler The experience isn't dead simple yet, but it's usually simple enough. In fact, the most confusing part is deciding where to save the passkey. If Windows Hello is set up on your PC, it wants to manage that passkey, and I have to push it aside so that I can use the passkey saved in my preferred password manager, 1Password."
A new Windows API enables third-party apps to act as native passkey credential managers on Windows 11. 1Password is the first password manager to implement the API, allowing it to take over passkey management from Windows Hello after enabling the integration and installing the latest 1Password release. Users can create passkeys on any device, then sync and manage them with 1Password while using Windows Hello for local authentication. Passkeys eliminate passwords by using biometric or PIN authenticators, reducing sign-in friction. Previous testing required a Windows Insider Dev channel build and a 1Password beta; the public feature now requires the latest 1Password update.
