Passkeys let you sign in to Super with your fingerprint, face or device PIN instead of a password. A passkey is stored on your device or in your password manager (iCloud Keychain, Google Password Manager, 1Password and others), so there is nothing to type and nothing that can be phished.
Passkeys are an extra sign-in method. Your email and password, Google and Apple sign-in keep working.
Adding a passkey
- Log in to Super and open Account › Preferences.
- In the Passkeys card, click Add a passkey.
- Confirm with your fingerprint, face or device PIN when your browser asks.
The passkey appears in the list with the date it was added. You can add more than one, for example one on your laptop and one on your phone.
If the card says This browser does not support passkeys, update your browser or use a different one. Current versions of Chrome, Safari, Edge and Firefox all support passkeys.
Signing in with a passkey
- Go to the Super log in page.
- Click Sign in with a passkey.
- Pick your passkey and confirm with your fingerprint, face or device PIN.
You don't need to enter your email: the passkey tells Super which account it belongs to.
If sign-in fails, you'll see Passkey sign-in failed. Try again, or sign in with your email and password, Google or Apple.
Removing a passkey
In Account › Preferences › Passkeys, click the trash icon next to the passkey. It can no longer be used to sign in to Super; your other sign-in methods are not affected.
Removing a passkey in Super does not delete it from your device or password manager. Delete it there as well if you no longer need it.
Turning off password sign-in
Once you can sign in with a passkey, Google or Apple, you can stop your password from being used at all. A leaked or guessed password then can't open your account.
- Open Account › Preferences.
- In the Security card, switch off Allow sign-in with email and password.
From now on, signing in with your email and password shows Password sign-in is turned off for this account. Use Sign in with a passkey, Google or Apple instead.
Make sure another sign-in method works before you switch the password off: add a passkey above, or check that Sign in with Google or Sign in with Apple opens your account.
Turning it back on
- Switch Allow sign-in with email and password on again in the Security card, or
- if you can't sign in any other way, click Forgot password on the log in page. Setting a new password from the email turns password sign-in back on.
