Comment on Passkeys might really kill passwords

  I have been super hesitant to look into KeePassXC, should I give it a chance?

  Of course, unless I can also access these features on my phone it doesn’t really matter…

    Yeah, unfortunately passkey support on mobile outside of what the OS/browsers provide is kind of not there at the moment but it’s being worked on. Android 14 apparently has some kind of framework for integrating in third-party passkey providers. At this point, you should view passkeys as an additional, more convenient and secure way to log in on the platforms it’s supported on, not necessarily the only way to log into an account.

    Pull the software down and give it a look. Set up a database with no real passwords in it just to play with the various features.

    I recently switched to KeePassXC and it looks nicer and is easier to use. The also include some addon functionality into the app so you don’t need to trust that. The only downside is that it doesn’t automatically fills the browser text fields, you have to click on a green icon in the text field - but that is more secure. They also have an android app.
