Hello reinhard76! 👋

Thanks for the question! In the future, if you choose to unlock 1Password with a passkey, we do indeed recommend storing that passkey in a platform account, such as Apple’s iCloud Keychain, and that you also have more than one device synced with that platform account. This way, if you lose a device, you have another way to recover your 1Password account.

Unlocking 1Password with a passkey is currently in a private beta and we'll have more to share on what the user experience looks like as the development process continues.
