WioKey Authenticator Companion Extension

WioKey replaces costly hardware security keys with a free app-based solution always on you.

This extension is a companion app and requires the WioKey app available on Android (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=de.wiosense.wiokey&hl=en) and iOS (coming soon).

Currently, WioKey allows you to use your biometrics or phone password/PIN for 2-Factor Authentication (2FA) with all web services that have support for hardware security key 2FA logins. Additionally, WioKey supports FIDO2 passwordless logins with Microsoft accounts, Windows PC login and other FIDO2-compliant web services.

For a list of U2F supported web portals, please see https://twofactorauth.org/. For FIDO2 supported websites, please see the commercial deployment on the FIDO2 alliance website (https://fidoalliance.org/).
