### 󠀁[Works like a charm on iPhone and MacBook Pro](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/works-like-a-charm-on-iphone-and-macbook-pro/)󠁿

I was testing WebAuthn plugins and tried both “Passwordless WP” and “WP-WebAuthn”
in my current version of the Chrome browser (v91) on my 2016 MacBook Pro. I could
not get “WP-WebAuthn” to register an authenticator on my MacBook Pro using TouchID.
It always returned “Registration failed”. Then I switched to “Passwordless WP” and
it worked like a charm on both my MacBook Air (TouchID and Chrome) and iPhone (FaceID
and Safari). Note that is does not work with my 2019 iMac since it has neither TouchID
nor FaceID — that is to be expected. This is an exciting new technology and I look
forward to a passwordless future!

I have been waiting for this. This is how devices started getting rid of passwords.
Then some native phone apps followed. Now to web apps and WordPress. This is the
future.
