Passkeys in their base form can only be used to verify who you are. They’re excellent at this but can’t traditionally be used to scramble the data associated with your account – in this case, your private notes.

That changes with the Pseudo-Random Function (PRF) extension. Now, passkeys stored in 1Password can also be used for encryption. That means the note-taking app can fully ditch passwords and use passkeys for the sign-in process and encrypting your notes.
