Can we call it something other than passkey? That sounds suspiciously like password, but makes me picture a key fob. Biometics? Authentication device?

- Scion9066 3y agoPretty sure that's intentional. It's replacing something you know (a word) with something you have (a key stored on a device or some kind of account). It doesn't necessarily need to use biometrics or be bound to a specific device, so those aren't quite accurate. Thus, passkey.
