How to set up / delete a passkey

Updated over 2 weeks ago

A passkey is a new type of authentication method that aims to replace passwords. It uses a combination of hardware and software to create a secure and more user-friendly login experience.

Passkeys rely on strong cryptographic methods and biometric authentication, making them significantly more secure than traditional passwords.

This is how you set up a passkey

  • Open My profile under your avatar:


  • In the Security section of My profile, click on the SETUP button next to "Passkeys and security keys":


  • Follow the instructions on your device.
    Your browser will show you the available options, which depend on the browser/device you're using.

  • The most commonly used options are:

    • Windows Hello/iCloud Keychain

    • Your mobile device

    • Your browser profile

    • A password manager that supports passkeys

    • An external security key

  • Click on EDIT to rename your passkey:

  • ​Click on Save:


This is how you delete a passkey

  • Click on the Delete button next to the respective passkey if you want to remove that passkey from ApprovalMax:
