DuckDuckGo has introduced a new 'Sync & Backup' feature to its browser that allows users to keep their passwords, bookmarks, and favorites synced across devices without needing to create an account. The data is protected by end-to-end encryption, ensuring privacy and security. DuckDuckGo emphasizes that it cannot access the user's data at any point.
The new feature addresses a significant obstacle for users who want to switch to DuckDuckGo's privacy-focused browser. Many users are hesitant to switch to a privacy-respecting browser due to the challenge of managing unique passwords across multiple devices. With this update, DuckDuckGo eliminates the need to rely on an external password manager and offers a convenient solution for password syncing. However, it's worth noting that DuckDuckGo currently does not support passkeys, which may hinder its ability to compete with browser giants like Google, Microsoft, and Apple in the future.
