How to create and use a passkey
Passkeys are changing how people access their various websites and apps. This new login method doesn't require a username and password combination. Rather than being stored on a server where they can be leaked, passkeys are stored on your phone, saved in Samsung Pass, which enables you to easily sign-in with your fingerprint.
Note: Passkeys are not supported by every website or app.
