Unlock 1Password with Passkey

I think it’s maybe at least 3+ years since 1Password team enthusiasticly introduced us to this very important and potent feature.  They offered excellent educational blogs and detailed articles that 1Password is so well known for.  The project appeared to be already in the works.  As I recall, the buzz and anticipation lasted about 1.5 years.  Apart from Beta testing by some users, there has been no substantial (if any) communication from Agilebits (that I am aware of) about the project.

As paid subscribers, I feel entitled that we be informed of the project status.  Please?

Hello @suffice! 👋

Thanks for asking about this! Our team recently provided an update during our last Reddit AMA: https://old.reddit.com/r/1Password/comments/1oe77ad/were_the_team_behind_1password_ask_us_anything/nm14m1p/

The short answer is that the passkey unlock beta gave us a lot of valuable feedback and it's clear that more work is still needed to get the experience to where it should be before we're able to release and promote the feature to a general audience. We want to be sure that we get this right. The passkey unlock beta is still open and active and we welcome new testers.

i too am interested in this discussion.  I clicked the Reddit link and was blocked.  Since I naver tried to to there, there was no reason for blocking unless it is private.  How to get past that block?

I'm sorry that you're having trouble with the Reddit link, I just tested and it's still working for me. Try this alternate link to see if you have better luck with it: Link

If that still doesn't work then can you post a screenshot of what you mean by the link being "blocked"?
