Passkeys now require interactive click instead of automatically "filling"

I saw in a post a few days ago (I don't remember which, there are many about passkeys going) that the button 'Sign In' that shows in the popup when trying to sign in, was added to prevent a website from prompting a login possibly without consent. But can't this be optional?

Having to pick a passkey when you have multiple for the same site is a must, but when there is only one, having that extra click makes it annoying.

+1 for customizability.

The integration on macOS (Safari) has been working quite well for me and I have accepted the current integration paradigm for the time being, but the extra click should be customizable.

It should remain a default off option though.

The extra click is a lot more preferable in my opinion.

1. It makes things more obvious to the end user as to what is happening.

2. If you have multiple passkeys stored for different accounts for the same service then then allows you to use a key that's not the first one that shows up. Otherwise key 2 onwards are inaccessible!

Hello @michaelyork, @loggor, and @ianto! 👋

Thank you for the feedback. Signing in with a passkey requires that you first confirm the sign in for two big reasons:

1. As rctneil mentioned, it allows you to choose which passkey to use in a situation where you might have multiple accounts for the same website.
2. Without user confirmation it would be possible for a website to trigger an automatic login without your consent. This can pose privacy and security implications for websites that you might want to temporarily browse anonymously without logging in right away.

I hope that helps. 🙂

@1P_Dave To me in particular, at least changing the button position on the screen would help. What bothers me is that you have a form in the center of the screen and need to click on something all the way to the other side. Can't there be an option to change the passkey popup, let's say, pick for it to show at the corners (top-right, bottom-right) or at the center (like the popup to update credentials)?

A keyboard shortcut for approving the login would also be very useful.
