Apple released iOS 16.1 and the new macOS, which both include passkey support, and PayPal is following suit, announcing that passkeys are being rolled out to consumers now on the desktop and web interface. Google is currently testing passkey support, and Microsoft says its accounts will work with passkey shortly.
The feature with PayPal syncs across Apple devices using iCloud keychain and app support will be coming soon.
Why do we care?
Passkeys are now in the wild in a major operating system and all of Apple’s ecosystem. This is a significant milestone, and I’d suggest that anyone doing support had better be geared up for this. Are you ready with management recommendations, such as password management questions? Open questions.
