Yes, but a percentage has to be seen in the context of the total to gauge its impact. India for example is 95% of 1.428 billion people vs Japan is 70% of only 124 million. There are just under 200 countries.
True, it is good, but they need to speed up on passkeys for mobile as many do use mobile devices and what's the point of having passkeys on desktop.
True, but the big number really is the USA followed maybe by Australia. Entire Middle East, Africa, South America, and Asia are Android. India is also massive (behind China), and India is 95% Android.
Yes, passkeys are public private keys, so a site only ever sees your public key. Your device does the match with the private key. So in that way, no-one can hack the service site and steal your password. But your private key on your device has to stay very private, and should be synced to another device, because if you lose your private key then essentially you can't login in. If a site offers a backup "password reset via e-mail" then they have rubbish security anyway.
I use passkeys for some sites, but have been reluctant to go all in until I'm sure all my devices can support them. I'm not always going to have my desktop with me, and likewise my phone's battery can be flat, etc. I've always wanted passkeys to first sync across all my devices, and ideally to be exportable and brought into a different service. Right now you can export your 900+ passwords, and import them into a different service if you want to move. You can't do that with Apple or Google passkeys.
True, and the reverse is also true when a product is bad. I blog usually about what I'm interested in testing out, and when I see if may be worth me moving to a different service.
RCS should not really be a proprietary app in the sense of a 3rd part installable app. It is normally carrier provided just like SMS works. On Apple the default SMS/Messenger is Apple's Messages app. On Pixel that is Google Messages and on Samsung phones they have their own one. It has a carrier hook and is apparently tied to the number.
Thanks I did not know that. I see they say share via the vault, but don't specifically mention exporting, as in to a file for importing elsewhere outside 1Password. But certainly LastPass, Bitwarden and others I'd looked at were not exporting the passkeys.
