Microsoft has announced that big changes are coming to its passkey experience, including third-party integration and account syncing. The Latest Tech News, Delivered to Your Inbox

When creating a new passkey on a supported website or app, Windows Hello will ask how you want to save the passkey. You can now save passkeys to your Microsoft Account (in addition to the other options) and they’ll become available on every Windows 11 PC where you’re logged in with the same account.

Microsoft is also partnering with companies like 1Password and Bitwarden to integrate passkey providers directly into Windows 11.

Microsoft is apparently planning to synchronize passkeys between devices via the Microsoft account in the future. A third-party API is also planned.

A new API for third-party password and passkey managers means developers can plug directly into the Windows 11 experience, so you can use the same passkey from your mobile device
