iOS Users Can Now Access Passkey Logins Globally Thanks to X

X makes passkey logins available to iOS users worldwide
SHARE

X (formerly Twitter) expanded its passkey login option for iOS users by rolling out the feature globally. This new login alternative is viewed as more secure than the traditional password option, making users less vulnerable to hacking and identity theft. The rollout is a significant move that will impact the way users access their accounts on the X app.

What is a passkey, you say? Per Dashlane, passkeys are a way to log in without a password. They use your phone or another supported device to prove that you are who you say you are before letting you into your account. A lot of security happens behind the scenes, but the main benefit of passkeys is that they can’t be stolen like passwords

What’s Happening & Why This Matters

If you’re an iPhone user, you can now access the passkey login feature on the X app. This login option allows users to create a digital authentication credential, which requires a key pair for identity verification. One of the keys is stored locally on the user’s device, while the service offering the login option has access to the other key. Users simply have to confirm their identity through biometric credentials or a device passcode.

To enable passkeys on X, iPhone users should navigate to “Settings and privacy” under “Your account,” and then go to “Security and account access” to find Passkey under “Additional password protection.” Unfortunately, X has not announced when or if this option will be available for Android users.

TF Summary: What’s Next

The global rollout of X’s Passkey feature is a security milestone for user access. This development certainly opens up new possibilities for account security and user access on the social media platform. Moreover, users can expect better protection against hacking and identity theft with this new login option.  Android users will eagerly await X Passkey support when it becomes available for their devices.
