Disable use of passkeys on all sites

I have searched and cannot find the answer I am looking for. According to my settings, I have not enabled the use of passkeys on the Bitwarden website where I log into the vault, and I can find no place to either enable or disable passkeys in the browser extension or desktop app. However, every time I visit a page at amazon.com the browser extension prompts me to save the passkey. I don’t want to use the passkey, because I’m on an older phone with Android 13 that doesn’t support passkeys with the Android app, and then I run into trouble. No. I want it to stop asking to save the passkey. It’s a real hassle having to close out two popups for every page load at Amazon. How do I make it stop short of changing to another password manager? I’m using the Chrome browser on Fedora if that helps any.

Welcome, @danielwmoore to the community!

Yes, Amazon is quite insistent on Passkeys. If you set up an Amazon passkey, that does not prevent you from using a password if you do not receive (or even decline) the passkey login.

In your shoes, I would use the passkey on Linux and the password on Android. This way you gain partial benefit from Passkey’s phish-resistance.

The setting to disable passkeys is right here. You might consider the more tailored approach of adding amazon.com to the “excluded domains” list, instead of turning them off altogether.

Thank you so much! You have solved several headaches for me with that one simple thing! I never thought to look under notifications for that. It seems a very odd place to put it. There should be a specific setting under passkeys, but there isn’t. Thanks again.
