I really like the idea though I won't register. I'd like to have a central password repository, but I want these features:
- ability to store passwords for non-web services
- automatically generate passwords based on certain rules (ie always 6 digits)
- have an API to fetch/store passwords
- have a browser plugin instead of a bookmarklet (I don't use the bookmark bar in chrome)
- PawelDecowski 16y agoI hear you. And my reply is: there are other password managers better suited for you. > ability to store passwords for non-web services That's not what PassKey was built for. My main goal was to provide 1-click sign in. Web app (which PassKey is) won't be able to sign you in to, say, Skype client. It's technologically impossible. > automatically generate passwords based on certain rules (ie always 6 digits) That might be an interesting tool within PassKey and I may consider it. > have an API to fetch/store passwords That's an interesting idea. If there's enough interest I may provide an API to fetch/store encrypted passwords. Encryption/decryption would have to happen on API client level for security reasons (ie I don't know the decryption key). > have a browser plugin instead of a bookmarklet (I don't use the bookmark bar in chrome) That defeats my goal to make it a "nothing to install" app. Bottom line: PassKey was created purely to give you a button in your browser that you click on and it signs you in to the website you're on. Nothing more. Thanks for your input!
