I just got the update on my phone on Google play, Firefox now supports 3rd party password managers for passkeys (on android 14+). Just tried it, and I got prompted with my 3rd party password manager, so it works!
Pass keys has so many issues that they still haven’t figured out. Unless it attains a bit of maturity I will not use it.
I really like them as a more secure way of logging in, its basically what authentication should have been all along (and weve been doing it all along, with SSH keys!). Its about time we take that private/public key concept and apply it to user accounts
main issue for me is that i didn’t see any way to invalidate old passkeys. I tried them in a few websites like ebay but it looks like they are valid forever so if my device is compromised, the attacker has access to my account in perpetuity even if i change the password
You delete it from your account, that makes it invalid. Just like removing an entry from authorized_keys. If the site does this after changing the password or not is up to them.
I mean, suppose that i save a passkey in my password manager, then because of my bad opsec someone else gets hold of it - if I delete it from my account, the attacker still has a copy and I have no way to invalidate it
I checked again on eBay, there’s no “list of passkeys” even if I created 4 of them (one for each browser on each of my computer + one synced via password manager)
eBay has implemented their passkey support poorly. “Turn off” will invalidate them. Most sites have a list of passkeys and you just delete the one you don’t want working anymore. At that point it doesn’t matter who has it, it’s useless.

Which version of the app is this? I assume the update isn’t available in my region yet or something
128.0.1, in Canada, you also need android 14+
Odd, I’m probably looking in the wrong place. I’ll look into it more, thanks :)
KeepassXC… I don’t want anything else.
Got this update but it doesn’t seem to work for me with bitwarden, what password manager do you use?
Proton Pass
There seems to be a specific problem with registering passkeys, but logging in should work fine if you have already registered a passkey for a site. Not sure if this is the case with all password managers, or just Bitwarden.
