As an alternative to passwords, “Passwords” provide a faster, easier and more secure way to log in to your PlayStation Network account. Once activated, you can use the same convenient method of unlocking your device screen from your mobile device or computer. (such as fingerprint, face scan or PIN code) to log in.

It is mentioned on the official “Password” description page that “Password” has two major advantages as a “password” login alternative. First, it eliminates the need to enter a password, making login faster and entering the game faster; second, Passkeys reduce the vulnerabilities of traditional password systems because they cannot be guessed or reused, are tied to your PlayStation Network account, and can only be accessed by you.
If you want to change the existing “password” login alternative to “passkey”, you must first log in to your PlayStation Network account. Since we choose to use an iPhone and store the passkey in the “iCloud Keychain”, the whole process is Works on iPhone and Safari.
After logging into your account in Safari, go to Security and select “Edit” under the “Password” option.

Choose to create a passkey. Since the iPhone is used as an example here, select the “iPhone, iPad or Android” device.
You should then see a message asking “Do you want to use FACE ID” to log in? Here, swipe your face according to the usual facial recognition unlocking method.
If facial recognition works fine, you should see the message “You can now log in with your passkey.”
In the background status, “Log in with passkey” should be “Enabled”; as for the original password, it will be disabled.
If you later want to log in on your computer, enter your account number and select “Log in with passkey” instead.
Select the “iPhone, iPad or Android” device and click Next, a passkey QR will pop up. After scanning the QR Code with the iPhone camera, you can log in smoothly through facial recognition unlocking.
Of course, if you want to “revert to logging in to PSN with a password” for various reasons, you must first go to the backend to disable “Log in with a passkey”, then create a password and log in to PSN again.
The actual test of the “passkey” function is actually to add “PSN login” to the unlocking function of the mobile device. The biggest advantage is naturally that you no longer have to worry about forgetting the password, but you may first confirm that you can use the passkey to log in on multiple devices. , otherwise if all the devices that can be logged in are lost or cannot be used normally, you can only ask the PlayStation Service Center to help restore the account, which is quite troublesome to be honest.
