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

Wow, indeed: passkeys do work with build 81016026 on my iPad running iOS 17 RC 🎉

Damn, now I have another reason to buy a new iPhone… (my iPhone X won’t get iOS 17 😢)

Didn’t work very well signing in on a laptop and scanning the qr code with my phone with 1Password on it.

Kept hanging after selecting use passkey

Just successfully signed in to my Adobe account with my passkey via 1Password! Seamless and perfect!

Nice work 1PW team!

UPDATE: Both Google and GitHub also both worked flawlessly. I think one thing that's confusing about passkys is that different companies integrate it in different ways:

  • Adobe, you click "Sign in with Passkey", I choose the key via the 1PW popup and sign in complete.
  • Google, similar to above.
  • Github, you enter both username and password, then click "Use security key" on next page. It's more like 2FA in this instance.

Github, you enter both username and password, then click "Use security key" on next page. It's more like 2FA in this instance.

Try this:

https://github.com/login?passkey=true

That will enable you to log in via a passkey without entering username/password first.

(This is a temporary solution until their passkey support moves out of beta)

@XIII when I tried that it came up saying

However once I entered my username / password combo I could sign in via passkey quite easily. Since 1password autofills it, it isn't so much of a problem, it's still very quick indeed.

You need to upgrade your passkey to support login, and not just 2FA. You first need to enable Passkey logins in experimental features:

Then at https://github.com/settings/security you should be able to upgrade your passkey (or register a new one).

Ahh thanks @jfroy! Works like a charm. I was missing the fact you had to turn it on via feature preview.
