I briefly looked into passkeys a while ago, but I think I remember really disliking them because they just seemed like another excuse for companies to lock you in.
Has this changed? With Bitwarden + passwords, I can change to any platform, any device, at any time, and instantly get all my creds moved over securely.
I don’t want to be in a situation where I’m locked into using Android, Chrome, iOS, or whatever because I can’t move my creds.
Ahh, sorry, didn’t see that part.
Is it a problem with the PlayStation app not wanting to play nicely with the deep linking of Bitwarden?
Do other passkey apps work with it?
Yeah I don’t think it’s the only password manager that allows PassKeys either. Plus, they’re more secure by design; the website never has to store anything that can be reversed to allow access. Bitwarden even lets you store multiple passkeys per site.
I do hate how it’s promoted as “locked to your device” though but i imagine that’s because (unfortunately) password managers aren’t used by a majority of users.

Bitwarden has passkey support! Syncs too!
Except for passkey login on Android app. For example Playstation app login with passkey won’t work.
Have you tried Bitwarden? I like their implementation best and its cross-platform.
My reply was specifically for Bitwarden.

Hm, ok. Maybe it’s time to take another look.
It’s not. There is almost zero security improvement between a passkey vs a randomly generated password + 2FA.
The only concern is if you’re dumb enough to give away your password, or not activate 2FA on critical accounts.
