Paypal passkeys in Germany - offered but not supported
As of today here in Germany, I found Paypal is offering Passkeys to me.
However, if I try to create one, Paypal says my device isn't supported. Which is a surprise for me, since I'm running Window...
PayPal also supports "Google devices", but maybe they mean Android?
They mean Android. However, Passkeys on Android isn't supported by 1Password. Only Apple mobile devices are supported by 1Password, as far as I read about it. For Paypal, I can only create a passkey in the Android native storage (I tried, and that's how it worked out).
But having passkeys on one device but not on the other is like having two keys and two locks for my house at the same door: one sophisticated highly secure key and one ordinary key with ordinary security. I don't see any advantage in using the highly secure lock, if I'm unable to get rid of the ordinary lock.
