Add passkeys to android and unlock vault

Hey,

I wanted to say that the only thing preventing me from fully migrating to bitwarden at the moment. Is the lack of passkeys for android login, and unlocking vault be web or android.

You can login with passkey in the web, but for the most repetitive thing which is unlocking the vault, you dont have the option to.

Would be nice to have login and unlock vault in the android device too. I have a very strong password and it is not viable to keep logging in and unlocking through it, not in the web, even less in the mobile device.

You provide a way to login by unlocking the device through web approval, but that requires unlocking the vault.

Any plans to add? A when, maybe?

Thanks.

@dougg0k Welcome to the forum!

I closed your request (with a 7-day delay), because it requests two things at once (which makes it impossible to count votes in a meaningful way), and because there was already at least one existing feature request that matches yours (and we try to reduce “duplicates”) here.

So please feel free to join these two existing feature requests to the same topic:

Hey @Nail1684

Well, the request are for a single thing but in more places.

Add passkeys option to:

  • Unlock vault in web and android
  • Login in android

I’ve seen PRs closed before in your repos, not adding the features in web. Not sure why.

Login and unlock are two different things.

Existing Feature Request that covers that: Unlock with "login-with-passkeys"-passkeys Unlock with FIDO2/“passkeys”

Existing Feature Request that covers that: Sign into Bitwarden with a passkey / "Login with passkeys" (for all BW apps)

If you mean GitHub: for us “end-users”, GitHub is mainly the place for bug reports. Feature Requests are mainly discussed here on the Community Forum.

PR means Pull Request, feature implementation.

e.g., Pull requests · bitwarden/clients · GitHub

For that, you’d have to ask the developers themselves.
(and I’m not a Bitwarden employee, but just a user)

Why close the topic then? It’s better exposure for who actually need to see.

If you now mean your feature request again: I already explained that above.
