Except, you can't sync the iphone's passkey with non apple products. And it's still tied to your apple ID, which uses a password. This in theory, defeats part of the point. (It's definitely better than the alternative though)
For android, the passkey is clone-able iirc, but again, it's an expensive smart device.
So now I am expected to have at a minimum, two use-able smart phones, per family member.
Iphone? Frankly, fuck that shit. Too expensive.
Android, I can manage it. But doing that for all family members is not financially viable.
Also I do use a password manager and an encrypted text file. (Not smart, I know. The file is basically a backup)
But I really cannot expect people like my mother to understand how to set up a passkey. Much less, how to setup multiple for the off chance one is lost. Add onto the fact that Yubikey does not support twins, and many services do not support multiple passkeys.
In terms of computer literacy, using my mother as a baseline (Age:Mid50s) the current passkey system is non-viable.
