Google gets going with the promise of a “passwordless future” by bringing Passkeys to all Google accounts

One of the standout feature additions to Android that are set to arrive to everyone later in the year when version 14 drops is passkeys, the future of passwords or, as Google likes to call them, the keys to a passwordless future, by making it easier for developers to incorporate them in their apps and anything they are working.

For users, Google has, on World Password Day, accelerated their adoption by making it possible for everyone with a Google account to use them.

“You can try them out at g.co/passkeys and setting it up is easy,” Google says in a blog post.

“For Google Workspace accounts, administrators will soon have the option to enable passkeys for their end-users during sign-in,” Google adds.

Now, what are passkeys?

According to Google:

Passkeys are a new way to sign in to apps and websites. They’re both easier to use and more secure than passwords, so users no longer need to rely on the names of pets, birthdays or the infamous “password123.” Instead, passkeys let users sign in to apps and sites the same way they unlock their devices: with a fingerprint, a face scan or a screen lock PIN. And, unlike passwords, passkeys are resistant to online attacks like phishing, making them more secure than things like SMS one-time codes.
