How to set up a passkey so you don't need a password

A passkey lets you log in using your fingerprint, face, or device PIN instead of a password. When a service offers 'Set up a passkey' or 'Go passwordless', tap it and follow the prompts. Your phone or computer handles the rest. It's more secure than a password and you never have to remember anything.

Passkeys are a replacement for passwords. Instead of typing a password, you log in using your fingerprint, face, or device PIN. The same way you unlock your phone. Passkeys are stored securely on your device and can't be stolen in a data breach like passwords can. Most major services (Google, Apple, Microsoft) now support them, and setting one up takes about a minute.
