We had originally planned to go all-in on passkeys for ONCE/Campfire, and we built the early authentication system entirely around that. It was not a simple setup! Handling passkeys properly is surprisingly complicated on the backend, but we got it done. Unfortunately, the user experience kinda sucked, so we ended up ripping it all out...
If you’re using Android it’s more than likely just an OS issue. I have had a lot of issues on my phone trying to use passkeys let alone just the password manager.
One of many reasons I hate android. In my experience the integration with technology: late and poorly polished, early and kneecapped, initially available then removed, or non-existent.
I think its partly the fragmentation in the Android community and mostly Google’s influence.
It does*.
However when I’m trying to login with a passkey in my mobile browser, Bitwarden prompt isn’t showing up. I don’t know what’s wrong.

That’s weird, it works for me. Is there something you need to click on the mobile site?
What’s your browser-Bitwarden setup?
The same flow works for me on desktop (firefox+bw plugin).
I’ve found on my android phone that the bitwarden prompt comes up more reliably if I tap on the password field instead of the username field.
This might be true, but I’m talking about passkeys, that never work :(
