I did yet another quick #passkey trial. And again nothing works, problems everywhere I look. Here's Chrome on a Samsung S23. I can tap "Sign in with passkey", then there's a spinning spinner on the button. And that's it.

edit: same behaviour before and after signing up...

And with my usual browser, Firefox, it's not great either:

1. "Show QR code" has sub-options for "NFC security key" and "USB security key". Where's the relation with QR codes??

2. No Bitwarden in sight even though the app and the extension are installed.

3. No Google Password Manager either. (Thanks Samsung?)

4. No possibility to have a passkey that is tied to my device without tying it to Google or some other provider.

Regarding Google, that one was enabled in the Autofill settings, see screenshot, but if I tap on it it shows a setup screen which asks for my "Chrome password" whatever that is supposed to mean...

So it was "enabled" but dysfunctional...

Does Chrome even use a password that is distinct from my Google password? Anyway I don't really want to get sucked into Chrome.

I'll stick with passwords for another year at least...

So that "Chrome passphrase" has apparently been set by me. But I never really used Chrome as my main browser. I must have set that passphrase over a decade ago? Anyway, I had to delete all my Chrome data in order to reset it. (understandable)

Now I still can't create passkeys in Google's Password Manager from within Firefox/Android, but it does now work in Chrome. And I can use this passkey in Firefox. Progress. Even though it's one-way. And I can still have Bitwarden set as primary.
