When will passkey support be introduced to 1Password on iOS?

When will passkeys be available for the 1Password8 app for iOS?

Hello @bgo125! 👋

I'm excited to share that today we're introducing support for saving and filling passkeys using 1Password in the browser on the desktop. You can read more about the big news here: Save and Sign In with Passkeys Using 1Password In the Browser

Saving and filling passkeys is only available in the beta version of 1Password in the (desktop) browser for now. However, if you save a passkey on your desktop then you'll be able to view that same passkey using 1Password for iOS. You aren't be able to fill that passkey on iOS just yet.

The team is hard at work at getting full passkey support on iOS ready (including saving and filling on iOS) and we'll have more to share soon. 🙂

Apple only announced Passkey APIs for iOS 17 yesterday (5 June 2023): https://developer.apple.com/passkeys/

No mention of backporting the feature to older versions of iOS from Apple.

In previous years, 1Password hasn't deployed new iOS features to beta until iOS release date (or very close to it). So I wouldn't be surprised if we don't see support until September.

IMO, it would be great if 1Password had another TestFlight for 1Password Nightly for those of us who install the developer or public beta who would test these features in advance.

I have 1PW Beta installed - how can I use the scan QR code passkey mechanism? Isn't there the scanner in 1PW yet?

Wondering this too.

We've just released a sneak peak at what passkeys will look like in iOS 17: Passkeys, iOS 17, and 1Password: A Sneak Peek at What’s Coming 🎉

Hi,

As the Apple Event is tommorrow and typically they release Release Candidate software versions after the events. I typically update to the RC versions as I feel it's mostly safe to do so.

If I do this, does the version of 1PW on TestFlight support the new Passkey filling capabilities added in iOS 17?

If not then I realise the final release shouldn't be far behind so it's not a big deal. Just wondering that's all!

Thanks,

@1P_Dave considering iOS 17 is coming out quite literally next Monday, is there any updates on when we will be seeing Passkeys enabled on 1password 8, either via TestFlight or official builds?

@Maelstromeous

Sorry, there are not updates at this time. Hopefully, it will not be too much longer before you'll be able to work with those passkeys.

Passkeys on iOS 17 with the latest TestFlight is now live for me.
