Add passkey AND two-factor authentication to logins
1Password told me I could add a passkey to my YouTube account which i've now done, but it now tells me I can add two-factor authentication and I get the alert on the login whenever I view it.

Ah, thanks for this explanation 1P_Dave !
I too was very confused why I've added a passkey to my item, but 1Password still prompts me to add "two-factor authentication" as well. Passkeys are better than 2FA from everything I've learned, and 1Password's prompt doesn't say anything about how it adds more protection than the passkey already does.
Maybe the prompt verbiage could be clarified that even with a passkey, 2FA remains important while sites continue accepting passwords.

Community ManagerOn behalf of Dave, you are very welcome nukmicah!
It can be hard to cover every situation in a brief prompt, but I would agree some additional clarification around the passkey / 2FA overlap could be helpful. While I can't say this is something that will be changed, I've shared your comments with the team.
Thanks for your consideration and feedback on this. If we can help with anything, feel free to reach out!
