Users can create and use passkeys on Android devices, which are securely synced through the Google Password Manager.Today's announcement is a major milestone in our work with passkeys, and enables two key capabilities: Additionally, users can use passkeys stored on their phone to sign in to apps and websites on other nearby devices. Passkeys on users' phones and computers are backed up and synced through the cloud to prevent lockouts in the case of device loss. For end-users, using one is similar to using a saved password today, where they simply confirm with their existing device screen lock such as their fingerprint. Passkeys follow already familiar UX patterns, and build on the existing experience of password autofill. Passkeys are built on industry standards and work across different operating systems and browser ecosystems, and can be used for both websites and apps. They cannot be reused, don't leak in server breaches, and protect users from phishing attacks. Passkeys are a significantly safer replacement for passwords and other phishable authentication factors. Starting today, Google is bringing passkey support to both Android and Chrome.
