    The passkey stored locally in some kind of hardware backed store on your device or in your password manager is the first factor: something you have.

    The PIN/password or fingerprint/face to unlock the device and access the stored passkey is the second factor: something you know or something you are, respectively.

    Two factors gets you to 2FA.
