This feature enhances your security by using your device's biometric or security key verification to authenticate, instead of storing and entering a password. This makes it nearly impossible for attackers to access your credentials. Passkeys are supported only for a subset of apps; they are listed in [Passkeys.directory](https://passkeys.directory/). Even when an app is listed there, it must also have passkeys fully enabled on its own end for Cerby to support it end-to-end. For example, Amazon and X (Twitter) are fully supported, but TikTok isn't yet, since TikTok hasn't enabled its global passkeys option on web. If you have any issues with a supported app, contact the Cerby Support team at . *** ## Supported features The following are the supported features of passkeys with the Cerby mobile app: * Add passkeys to existing accounts in your workspace. * (For iOS only) Create a new account in your Cerby workspace while also creating a passkey for an app. * Log in to your accounts using passkeys with the Cerby mobile app on your mobile device or combined with another device. * Update your passkeys whenever necessary.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter: ``` GET https://help.cerby.com/getting-started/concepts/credential-management/passkeys.md?ask=&goal= ``` `ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language. `goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal. The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation. Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
