I agree. However, a certain rundancy in IT has always helped me: e.g. if a key needs resetting, it is good to have another working one to peep.
It is a shame, I am not able to register the two new Google Titan hardware keys (Xmas present) for FIDO2-2FA with Bitwarden. If only that upper limit of maximum 5 keys was released to e.g. 10, it would not always be on our minds.
Allow users to register more than 5 WebAuthn authenticators.
As for now we can add Platform authenticators (Windows Hello, Touch ID, etc.) to Bitwarden, if the user has multiple physical authenticators plus multiple devices, the 5 WebAuthn slots will be used up quickly, so it is time to set the device limit of WebAuthn to unlimited.
I total agree I don’t really see the point in have a limit on the amount of webauthin authenticators that we can use
Checking back again. can we not just increment the number from 5 to 10? Why don’t you look at it this way → the complexity to make this fix is low, and you make customers happy? Again I pay can you do this? I’d like to use my mac … itouch, ipad faceid, linux and my windows computer fingerprint and yubiekey. They all have different 2fa mechanism built in. i’m a dev with a ton of computers. It’s a still limitation by my view. I can’t fathom why we limit it to 5. Who these days doesn’t have a different computer in each room
The first post perfectly captures the issue.
Another thing i can offer, i 'm recalling this is open source which is why i signed up for bitwarden originally. I wonder if i push a pr if you’d approve it? What’d i’d love to do is make this like a user driven setting.
I think this is getting quite important especially as Windows Hello / Fingerprints / TPMs are all valid WebAuthn keys nowadays.
Personally, I have set up 2 physical FIDO2 token, a mobile phone, a desktop and a laptop. This firmly takes up all 5 slots available, and I’d be in an awkward situation if I got another phone or computer.
I merged a “duplicate” Feature Request (FR) to this existing one into this one. I put the posts “en bloc” at the end of this FR to maintain the consistency of this exchange.
Thereby, I adapted the title of this FR to the currently used terminology (before, the title was “Support more than 5 FIDO2/WebAuthn keys for 2FA”).
