Adding PASSKEYS to my account

adelphiaUK — Mon, 10 Mar 2025 11:39:44 GMT

Having very recently been hacked (I don't wish that on anyone), I am trying to convert all my online accounts to use PASSKEYS (i.e. fingerprints) but I can't find a way to do it on Sky.

Do Sky offer such a facility? If not, is this likely to be something they will be adding?

I look forward to any help you can offer.

So far as I know, they don't.

They're unlikely to tell you whether they have plans to do so.

@adelphiaUK You can't do it directly with Sky, however depending on which browser you use you can set one up at browser level. Chrome has this option and provide a secure passkey option.

Hi @GD1

Could you possibly tell me where I find that please, as all I get is Google (and LastPass) asking it wants me to save the password. I can't see an option to create a passkey which I do whenever I see it as an option.

Thanks.
