Bitwarden currently only supports storing and using Passkeys via the browser extension. You cannot use them on mobile.
Yep, the title is incorrect.
No it isn't. Passkeys cannot be used on mobile Bitwarden, only the browser extension.
Passkey storage
Note
Saving and using passkeys are a feature of the Bitwarden browser extension. Other Bitwarden clients can be used to view the saved passkey.

I don't think it has the ability to export/share.
Like in a file?
Bitwarden already syncs between PC and phone.
Vaultwarden is completely in my hands though
True, just hope they eventually get passkeys for mobile.
I really want to like Proton and all their shit, but they seem to heavily advertise everything they have on every software and product they have in a very intrusive and annoying way.
Simply logging into Proton mail and being bombarded by Proton promotional shit feels like Google all over again.
The app reminds me constantly that I'm a piece of shit for not supporting them by subscribing to their VPN, etc etc.
And yet I missed their announcement about their passkeys. In today's competitive world, I think any company that does not advertise in some way, is really not going to survive (as much as I don't like ads either). Maybe I don't see that much as I am paying.
I started using Strongbox on iPhone & Mac for passkey support Bitwarden is still there too, esp for PC, but I may move to an all KeePass setup.
Proton is also the ONLY passkey provider that I've seen allowing you to store, share, and export passkeys just like you can with passwords!
1Password has had this for several months.
As others have mentioned, Bitwarden also has this. This really feels like an ad.
Agreed. Saying PP four times in two sentences triggers my ad sense. Capitalism never capitulates.
I’m not 100% clear on the pricing. Do I get this for “free” as part of a premium subscription to Proton Mail/Drive/Calendar or is this a separate subscription?
Probably best to see their comparison but free account mainly excludes Integrated 2FA authenticator and only has two vaults, but unlimited logins. I'm on the unlimited account (for VPN and mail) so can't check for sure.
Free for everyone.
This is included in the premium subscription
Nice. Thx.
The real question is why the fuck is this guy passing for two password managers if not more, especially if he isn't even using one?
all devices
Lies, there's no Linux app yet. As usual, Proton Inc continues to treat Linux users as third-class citizens, all whilst claiming they care about privacy and security.
Edit: They don't even have a macOS app yet lol.
I'm using the browser add-on in Linux across all my browsers. I do have the Bitwarden app for Linux, but to be honest I never open it as it is a pain to have to open a separate app, and then copy and paste. Isn't it just more seamless to let it replace the browser password manager on Linux? If I want to tidy up my Bitwarden vault, I also do that in the browser.
