Passkeys not stored in Android Enpass

Recommended Posts

Hi there, I managed to get my head around passkeys and roughly how it works. 

Unfortunately Enpass provides very little information on how to set up your Enpass app to work with passkeys and how to make Enpass store the keys. 

Anyway, I think I've worked it out after a lot of reading forum posts. 

However, it seems that Enpass is not on the option list to store a newly generated key. I have added keys for Google accounts, eBay, GitHub but non of them have been stored in Enpass. They do, however, work fine. But stored in the Google vault.

Only two sites for which I have created keys have been stored in Enpass and that's PayPal and passkeys.io (testing account). When generating those keys, Enpass was actually shown as the place to store the keys.

I'm using the latest Enpass Version 6.10.1 (982). On Pixel 8. Latest Android Brave browser and Google Chrome browser. 

Am I missing something? 

*** Another attempt ***

Just tried adding a key to another testing site (see screenshot). Same problem, you can see it's adding the key to the Google vault.

PS: A proper set up guide would really be appreciated. Including what options to set in Enpass and how to check if everything is working. Bitwarden for example provides a lengthy detailed YT Video. Enpass has a 20sec music clip with flashing images nobody can follow.

Have you set Enpass as the preferred or additional service for using passkeys in the "Password, passkeys, and data services" options in your device settings? If not, please follow these steps:
1. Go to Settings.
2. Search for "Password, passkeys, and data services" options.
3. Select Enpass to enable it for passkeys.

Additionally, have you enabled Android Credential Management for passkeys for third-party password managers? If not, follow these steps:
1. Open the Chrome browser.
2. Enter "chrome://flags" in the address bar and press Enter.
3. Search for "Android credentials Management for passkeys."
4. Select "Enabled for Google Password Manager and 3rd party passkeys."

If you've already enabled both settings and are still experiencing issues, please provide a list of websites where the passkey is working correctly with Enpass and those where the issue persists.
