Google is replacing passwords with passkeys for more security — here's how they're different

• Google is rolling out a passkey feature meant to create a password-less login experience for users.
• Unlike passwords, users don't have to remember passkeys, or worry so much about their accounts being hacked, Google said.
• With passkeys enabled, you'll only have to verify your identity on a trusted device to access an account.

That old password you've been recycling for years may soon be obsolete as Google moves toward a new way for users to access their online accounts.
