  • An Android Authority teardown has revealed that Google Password Manager for Android could get automatic passkey upgrades.
  • This would be a major improvement over having to manually upgrade your passwords to passkeys on Android.
  • Passkeys are more secure and convenient alternatives to usernames and passwords.

Google has firmly embraced passkeys as an alternative to passwords, giving users a more secure and convenient way to sign in. The Chrome browser on desktop can automatically convert website passwords to passkeys, and it looks like Google Password Manager for Android will soon have the same ability.
