No browser supports Bluetooth.
- LoganDark 5mo agoChrome does...
- drusepth 5mo agoInterestingly, only on desktop/Android and not iOS it seems.
- LoganDark 5mo agoChrome on iOS uses WebKit, so that makes sense. (*I think in the EU, iOS Chrome can use Blink, but I am not sure if it actually does.)
- halapro 5mo agoThat's news to me https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/Web_Bluetooth_API https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/Web_Bluetoo... Websites cannot use Bluetooth anywhere. The QR codes shown in the blog post are not passkey QR codes, which is likely what's confusing you.
- nerdsniper 5mo agoThese passkey QR codes don't need to use Web Bluetooth API, because they utilize the WebAuthn API. The website itself isn't given access to the bluetooth, the task is handed off to the browser, which as a native application, can access bluetooth and abstracts the bluetooth away.
- halapro 5mo agoThat's passkey QR codes generated by the browser, it has nothing to do with random QR codes offered by websites.
