I’ll save you 2 minutes: this whole article is a roundabout ad for the author’s password manager, the complaint being there is not a standardized import/export functionality in the industry (fair). But I’m pretty sure 1Password supports passkeys already (or maybe they’ve just written a lot about them?).
- cmdli 4y agoAuthor here. This is somewhat an ad, but also a bit of a manifesto for what I think is the main problem with the current passkey managers (only Apple and Google currently have released theirs). 1Password is also working on passkeys, which I think is great! Their support currently isn't out yet, but they also recognize that passkeys need to be exportable and transferable, which gives me a lot of hope for the future. I would also say that my preferred passkey manager is open source, which is part of why I built my own, but I do not mind at all people who want to use 1Password instead. I've been working on passkeys for almost a year now, and I wanted to share my thoughts on how this part of the industry is going and what I think needs to happen next. Thanks for reading!
- infotogivenm 4y agoIt’s a nice product so I hope I didn’t come across too passive aggressive; but buried ledes can be frustrating for readers. Thanks for producing freely licensed work like virtual-fido, which looks very useful indeed. I’d imagine you are heading towards a commercial hosted option, so best of luck in this business.
