Google has also revealed that Android 14 will allow users to opt to use third-party credential management apps to store their passkeys on various devices.
“Tech giants are paving the way with new standards in online authentication, and we at NordPass are excited to see their efforts. With third-party integrations allowed on iOS 17 and Android 14, internet users will be able to choose which service provider to trust with passkeys, which in the end, are highly sensitive data items,” says Sorin Manole, a product strategist at NordPass.
