Step by step: getting started

What is a passkey?

Your phone or computer keeps a key for the house login; you confirm with your face, finger or PIN. Nothing to remember, nothing to type.

Set up a passkey Authenticator app instead

KeePassDX: turn on "User verification" in the ⋮ menu of the unlock screen first, or it refuses the passkey.
