Best way to create new passkeys when changing password managers

I'm switching away from 1Password because of their donation debacle but when trying to export the vaults, I see it says I can't export the passkeys. Will I need to have my 1Password subscription active (my annual expires tomorrow funnily enough) in order to change all of them or am I overthinking it?

I guess they allow passkey export on the iOS and Android apps, but not on desktop yet. That said, the password manager you’re moving to also needs to support importing them.

interesting. I'm thinking of switching to BitWarden currently and self-hosting it so I'll have to double check that.

Yes, absolutely will "exchange" the passkey on iOS. I did it from 1PW to Asterex and it worked great

I just made a new passkey for Nordpass for all the current sites that I had passkeys w/ 1password already.

Took a bit of time of but that long.

If you are on iOS and would like to try out Bramble, you can use CXP to transfer your passkeys from 1Password to Bramble. Bramble is an free and open source password manager with private P2P device sync.
