Set up passkeys

Passkeys let you sign in to Pushwoosh without a password. Instead of typing a password or waiting for an SMS code, you confirm access with Touch ID, Face ID, Windows Hello, or a device PIN.

What are the benefits of passkeys?

• Phishing-resistant sign-in: passkeys work only on the correct domain, so they cannot be used on a fake login page.
• No shared secret on the server: Pushwoosh stores only a public key, which cannot be used to sign in on its own.
• Faster login flow: for passkey sign-ins, confirm access with Touch ID, Face ID, Windows Hello, or a device PIN instead of entering a password and SMS code.
• Better protection than SMS codes: passkeys are not tied to your phone number, which reduces SIM-swap risks.

Enable passkeys in Pushwoosh

참고

You can add multiple passkeys to your Pushwoosh account, for example one for each device you use. Each passkey is independent and can be deleted separately.

To add a passkey:

1. Go to My Account > Account settings.

2. In the Passkeys section, click Add a passkey.

3. Enter a name for the passkey, then click OK.

4. Select where to save the passkey.

Passkey storage options

When you save a passkey, you can choose from several storage options.

• Sign in again (Google Account): saves and syncs the passkey across devices linked to your Google Account. Availability on other devices depends on your Google Account and Chrome sync settings. Typically used when you sign in with Chrome and use Google Password Manager.
• iCloud Keychain: saves and syncs the passkey across your Apple devices, including Mac, iPhone, and iPad. Typically used when your main devices are in the Apple ecosystem.
• Use a phone or tablet: lets you scan a QR code and use a nearby mobile device as the passkey provider. Use this when you need to sign in from a desktop without saving a passkey on that desktop.
• Your Chrome profile: saves the passkey in the current Chrome profile on this device. Availability on other devices depends on your Chrome and Google Password Manager sync settings.
• USB security key: saves the passkey on a physical FIDO security key such as YubiKey. Typically used in high-security environments or where hardware-based authentication is required.

Passkey availability depends on your browser, operating system, and selected passkey provider settings.

5. Complete the confirmation step shown for your selected storage option. For example, if you choose iCloud Keychain, confirm with Touch ID.

6. Return to Account settings and verify that the new passkey appears in the Passkeys list with a Synced status.

If the passkey shows an error status, the save step did not complete successfully. Click Add a passkey and try again.

팁

Set up at least one backup sign-in method in My Account > Account settings > Two-Factor Authentication:

• Email verification: sends a code to your confirmed email address.
• Authentication app: generates codes in an app such as Google Authenticator.

If your primary device is unavailable, you can still sign in using one of these methods. If you lose access to all sign-in methods, contact Pushwoosh Support.

Delete a passkey

1. Go to My Account > Account settings.
2. In the Passkeys section, find the passkey you want to remove.
3. Click Delete next to it.

참고

Deleting a passkey in Pushwoosh removes it from your account. If the passkey was saved to iCloud Keychain or Google Password Manager, it may still appear as a sign-in option in your browser. To avoid confusion, also delete it from your device password manager.

Sign in with a passkey

When signing in to Pushwoosh, a passkey can be used in two ways:

• If a passkey is available, your browser may suggest it automatically when you enter your username or email.
• If no suggestion appears, enter your username or email, click Sign in, and then click Sign In With Passkey.

Confirm sign-in on your device with biometrics or a device PIN.
