Chrome browser implements iCloud Keychain Passkey interoperability

Apple recently released an important update that will make it easier for Chrome users on Mac to access their iCloud Keychain passwords. It is expected that this update will officially take effect when the Chrome 118 stable version is released in early October this year.

Apple will allow Mac version of Chrome to browse by updating the browser extension to access the iCloud Keychain password. This means users can easily obtain their password credentials stored in iCloud Keychain. What’s exciting is that Chrome version 118 will further improve the user experience, allowing them to use Passkey in iCloud Keychain to log in to websites

According to my understanding, currently, the Mac version Chrome only allows users to access third-party account Passkeys stored in Google Password Manager. However, in the upcoming Chrome 118 version, users will have the opportunity to log in to websites using any Passkey stored and synced in iCloud Keychain, which will bring them greater convenience

In the beta version of the Chrome 118 browser, users can enable the "Use passkeys across your Apple devices" option in the "chrome://password-manager/settings" page. Once enabled, they will be able to access Passkeys created in iCloud Keychain and use them on current Apple devices. This will greatly simplify credential management across devices while improving data security

When using the Passkey login page in iCloud Keychain, it is important to note that users need to perform Touch ID confirmation to ensure Security and authentication. This new feature will be available in macOS 13.5 and later, and the Chrome 118 stable release date is expected to be early October this year
