2 years agoHow do I use Passkeys in Google Chrome on Android?
I was very excited, reading that Passkeys are finally fully supported in browsers and on my Windows it works great.
But now I'm trying to use Passkeys in Google Chrome with Android. Unfortunately...

2 years agoHi @Arian,
Currently by default Chrome and other Chromium based browsers doesn't appear to have Credential Management enabled by default. This would be required for third party password managers such as 1Password to allow you to sign in to websites using passkeys.
While we would be unable to provide a timeframe for when Google will have this enabled by default, it's possible to enable Credential Management within the Flags feature of Chrome which should allow you to use 1Password to sign into websites with passkeys. Please note, enabling and disabling particular flags can potentially lead to instability within your web browser, please ensure only the changes mentioned below are made and if you encounter any stability issues after setting these flags, please set them back to default.
Enabling Credential Management flag in Chrome
- Open Chrome, then type in chrome://flags into the address bar
- In the flags page which opens, tap the search box, then search for passkeys
- Tap Default under the Android Credential Management for passkeys flag, then tap Enable for 3rd party passkeys
- Click the Relaunch button that appears at the bottom of your browser
If the steps above don't work, please repeat the steps again but in Step 3, please change Enable for 3rd party passkeys to Enable for Google Password Manager and 3rd party passkeys
I hope this helps
