Do you like passkeys?
I really don’t like passkeys.
And it’s not because I don’t understand them.
On paper, passkeys are meant to be more secure than passwords. In reality, I don’t feel more secure — and that matters.
What makes me uneasy is how much trust they place in:• a single device• a single ecosystem (Apple / Google)• recovery processes I don’t control
Lose your device, lose access, or hit a recovery loop — and suddenly “more secure” feels a lot like “more fragile”.
Security isn’t just about maths and encryption.It’s also about confidence, transparency, and knowing you can recover when things go wrong.
Passkeys may be the future — but rolling them out without proper explanation doesn’t build trust. It does the opposite.
If security is meant to make users feel safer, we need to talk about the human side of it too.
Where do you land — reassured, unsure, or quietly opting out?
