A passkey lets you sign in to a website without a password, using your device's biometrics or a security key. Multifactor can store passkeys for your accounts and use them to sign in.
Create a passkey
Passkeys are created where you can complete the device security check — in the Multifactor browser extension or a native app (desktop or mobile):
On a website's sign-in or security page, choose to create a passkey.
When Multifactor offers to save it, confirm.
The passkey is stored on the account and synced across your devices.
See Passkeys and saving new logins for the extension flow.
View a passkey
Open an account in the web app to see a stored passkey, including the website it belongs to and the username it signs in.
Note: Passkeys can't be edited in the web app. To create new passkeys, use the Multifactor native apps or browser extensions.
Use a passkey
When a website asks for a passkey, approve the request through the Multifactor extension or app. Multifactor proves your identity to the site without revealing a password.
