Use a passkey to sign in to Tomba without typing a password. You confirm it's you with your fingerprint, your face, your device PIN or a hardware security key.

Before you start

You need a browser that supports passkeys: Chrome 108+, Firefox 122+, Edge 108+, Safari 16.1+ or Opera 97+.

Add a passkey

Step 1. Go to Settings > Security and scroll to Passkeys.

Step 2. Click Add passkey.

Step 4. Your browser asks where to save the passkey. The choices depend on your browser and device. Pick one and follow the prompts.

Your new passkey now shows in the list, with the date you added it.

Sign in with a passkey

  1. Go to the sign-in page.

  2. Click Sign in with a passkey.

  3. Follow the prompt from your browser or device.

Rename or delete a passkey

Find the passkey in the Passkeys list on Settings > Security.

  • Rename: Click the pencil icon, type the new name and click Save.

  • Delete: Click the trash icon.

⚠️ Important: The trash icon deletes the passkey straight away, with no second question. Make sure you have another way to sign in first.

Common questions

Do I need a passkey on every device?

It depends on where your browser saved it. If a device can't use your passkey, add a new one on that device.

Can I still use my password?

Yes. A passkey is one more way to sign in, and your password keeps working.
