Hi hmijail, thanks for reaching out!

I'm sorry that you're experiencing some trouble when saving and signing in with a passkey for the Discord app on your Mac.

In order to save and sign in with passkeys on Mac or iOS devices, you can use either the 1Password extension in your desktop browser or the 1Password for iOS app. It's not possible to save and sign in with a passkey using the 1Password for Mac desktop app at this time.

When attempting to scan the QR code to save a passkey with your iOS device, did you encounter a "Save a passkey" button when scanning the QR code with your camera?

Since your passkeys will be synced across your devices, you should be able to sign in with the same passkey you created with the 1Password extension when using 1Password for iOS to sign in via the QR code option. Can you let me know if you are able to successfully sign in using 1Password for iOS:

  1. Choose the passkey option to sign in, then choose to use another device.
  2. On your mobile device where 1Password for iOS is installed, scan the QR code with the camera app.
  3. Choose 1Password, then follow the steps to sign in.

I look forward to hearing from you!
