Passkeys don't work on mobile / TOTP from password manager fails

2025-09-17 23:03 UTC

The flow for passkeys ends up blocking mobile browsers from authenticating if the passkey is stored in a tool like 1password, even if 2FA via TOTP is enabled. When trying to use 1password to fill a 2FA TOTP on mobile, the form field doesn't fill. I've not had this problem with 1password on any other site that I use, so it seems specific to something nodebb is doig.

Yeah, but both, if I have a yubikey enabled, I can't use TOTP instead of yubikey from my tests. And yeah, I'm using a 1password passkey, instead of a yubikey — normally 1password handles those fine. On iOS Safari I received the system prompt, and it bypassed 1password completely.
