Warpcast

New Warpcast feature

Passkeys

- automatically back up your Farcaster recovery phrase to your iCloud Keychain. You remain in control of the phrase.

- it’s secured by FaceID, so no password to remember

- rolling out today for uses on iOS 17, coming to Android soon

Sick! So the farcaster recovery phrase is stored in largeBlob?

We store it securely in passkeys in iCloud Keychain

I.e. During signup, Warpcast creates your random key, uses it to register a signer, and forgets it. Right? This is something worth advertising in a more prominent way.

Works on iCloud but couldn’t get it to work with saving the passkey in 1password

iCloud and Google account are most secure thing for vast majority of people.

2. You’re free to save the Passkey in a password manager like 1Password

iOS 17 and latest app version from the App Store

Is that automatic or do we need to enable it somewhere?

This is awesome, but every time I login this screen comes up. Would like to make it go away until I want to set it up

Curious. What’s stopping you from setting up?

Awesome!

Great pattern. Do you have a technical write up of the feature / flow?

Passkey encrypts the recovery phrase and stores it in largeBlob or … ?

This is great. Speed of adoption of passkeys is mind blowing
