Meta is finally introducing support for passkeys in its Facebook mobile apps on Android and iOS. However, accounts aren’t becoming truly passwordless.
Companies and social media platforms are embracing passkeys more readily nowadays. Microsoft made new accounts passwordless by default just last month, Windows 11 has supported passkeys for quite a while, and Google hasn’t been left behind either. Interestingly, while passkeys work on WhatsApp too, Facebook hasn’t enjoyed the same functionality, even though both apps are owned by the same parent company, Meta. Well, that changes today.
Meta has announced support for passkeys in Facebook’s mobile app.
