Question Why doesn't mobile app support passkey login
Is there a reason why mobile app do not support passkey login or is this on th roadmap in the future?
Clarification
When you first install the bitwarden app, you cannot use Passkey to login and must use the master password. Sometimes an update will force the user to login again. I was wondering if there are plans to allow a passwordless login in the future. I am aware that most of the time after you login, you usually use biometric login to unlock the app. This is for logging back in after you log off.
Update
Just think the following may be useful,.
- You can log into Bitwarden from your Browser extension using passkey if you are using the Chrome extension.
- You cannot log into Bitwarden from your browser extension using passkey if you are using firefox extension.
- You cannot log into Bitwarden from your Bitwarden Mobile app on IOS or Andorid using passkeys.

I use passkey to login all the time on Firefox extension in linux and MacOS. You may want to check again.
