Yes. In Chromium-based browsers, at least. Your browser will display a QR code which you scan with your phone. Your phone will display a list of accounts you can sign in with, you select one, authenticate, and you're logged in. Firefox support isn't here yet.
- I don't think Apple is trying to own the name passkey. Quote from this video: https://developer.apple.com/videos/play/wwdc2022/10092/
> Here are some guidelines for how to refer to passkeys in your apps and websites. "Passkey" is a generic, user-visible term. This video focuses on Apple's implementation, but as I've just shown you, other major platforms have already started building their own support for passkeys. "Passkey" is also a common noun, like "password." In English, this means it's lowercase and gets pluralized like "password" would. I have a passkey for my account, and I can go to Settings to view all of my accounts with passkeys.
