Why do sites that I’ve enabled passkey on still hold my asterisked password?

Hello @deltabravosierra! 👋

Thanks for the question! Passkeys are still very early days and different websites have decided on different implementations. Some websites will allow you to completely replace your password with a passkey and then forget your password, most websites currently seem to allow you to add a passkey as an alternative sign in method but still keep the password option.

Since not all devices support passkeys you might need your password to sign in to your account on those devices.

Let me know if you have any other questions. 🙂
