How to set up a passkey to sign in to GetCalendario

A passkey lets you sign in with your fingerprint, face, device PIN or password manager instead of typing a password and a verification code. To set one up, open Settings, go to the Security tab, find the Passkeys section and press Add a passkey. Your browser then asks you to confirm, and the passkey is saved.

A passkey replaces both your password and your verification code in one step. It cannot be typed into a fake website, which is why it is the strongest way to sign in.

How do I add a passkey?

1. Open Settings and choose the Security tab.
2. In Passkeys, under "When you sign in with this passkey", pick one of two options:
   • Check it is me every time: your fingerprint, face, PIN or password manager's master password is asked for at each sign-in. This is the choice that lets the passkey stand in for your password and your verification code together.
   • Don't ask again if my device already unlocked it: fewer prompts, but anyone with your unlocked device or password manager can then sign in without proving who they are.
3. Type a name for the passkey in the box (it suggests one such as "Mac" or "Android device") so you can tell your passkeys apart later.
4. Press Add a passkey and follow your browser's prompt.

Adding a passkey needs a recent sign-in. If you are asked to, sign out, sign in again and then add it.

If you see "This browser cannot use passkeys", try a recent version of Chrome, Edge, Safari or Firefox.

How do I sign in with a passkey?

On the sign-in page, press Sign in with a passkey and confirm on your device.

What does each passkey show?

Each passkey in the list shows where it is saved, whether it syncs with your password manager or works on this device only, whether it checks it is you, and when it was last used. Use Rename to change its name and Remove to delete it.

Should I turn off password sign-in?

Once you have a passkey, the page shows a Password sign-in switch. The page recommends turning it off, because a password is still something that can be phished.

You can turn it off only if you have a second passkey, or a passkey that syncs to a password manager. If your only passkey works on one device, the page asks you to add another first, because losing that device would lock you out.

After you add a passkey, the page may offer to do this straight away with "Turn your password off?" You can turn password sign-in back on from the same page at any time, and removing your last passkey turns it back on for you.

What if I lose my passkey?

Generate recovery codes on the same Security tab. They are single-use codes that get you in when your passkey and authenticator app are both gone. See how to turn on two-factor sign-in.

What to know

• A passkey can also be used to lock your Daily Backups. A passkey that cannot do this is labelled "Signs you in, but can't lock Daily Backups". See lock your backups with a passkey, recovery code or password.
• When you have a passkey or an authenticator app, emailed sign-in links are switched off for your account, because email is the weakest way in.
• People you share a calendar view with can use a passkey too, separately from yours. See email or passkey: choosing how strict a shared view is.
