Hi netrbrunet

If you are using another device that doesn't have 1Password added to it and you'd like to sign in to an account using a passkey stored in 1Password, there are a few ways to do so. In a lot of cases, websites and services allow both a passkey and password to be added to an account simultaneously so you have the benefit of choosing which one works best for you (Google, PayPal, and Amazon allow both set up for example).

1Password does also support hybrid transport passkeys to sign in on other devices using passkeys in 1Password. This means that as long as the device you're signing in to has Bluetooth turned on, a QR code will be displayed that you scan with your iOS or Android device that has the passkey, authenticate with your unlock method, then the passkey is securely used on the other device without needing to install 1Password there.
