> Passkeys on iPhone require that you use iCloud Keychain. If you don’t have iCloud Keychain turned on when you try to save a passkey, you’ll be asked to turn it on. Passkeys also require that two-factor authentication is enabled for your Apple ID.
Nope, sorry. Enshittification makes this entire concept, as-presented, a non-starter.
- philsnow 4y agoWhich is the "shitty" part, 2FA on apple ID or iCloud Keychain? Both?
- Ajedi32 4y agoThat's how credential management works on iOS. The built-in password manager works the same way. What exactly is your concern?
- eep_social 4y agoYeah and I don’t use that except where it’s unavoidable (wifi passwords) because apple cannot be trusted any more than any other public company.
- Ajedi32 4y agoUse a different Passkey client then. This is like complaining that the "entire concept" of password managers is "a non-starter" because you don't like Lastpass.
- eep_social 4y agoIndeed I do not like LastPass and I have taken my business elsewhere. But it’s not on me to sell myself a passkey solution, it’s on the snobby folks like you who are so sure it’s obviously better. And I’ll repeat my previous comment: you all are doing a piss poor job of explaining that to the rest of the world who aren’t going to get on board. Betamax was better, VHS won.
