WhatsApp working on bringing passkeys to iPhones
As per a recent online report, WhatsApp is rolling out a new passkey feature tailored for iPhone users. According to WABetaInfo, the passkey feature has been launched for iOS beta testers in the updated version 24.2.10.73.
iPhone users can now smoothly adopt this feature, eliminating the need to handle passwords or one-time PINs. Instead, they can rely on their trusted Face ID, Touch ID, or device passcode. This enhancement not only enhances security but also simplifies the login process, striking a balance between convenience and safety.
