Verified feature request does not already exist?

  • I have searched and found no existing issue

💻

  • Would you like to implement this feature?

Pitch: what problem are you trying to solve?

Webauthn will allow users to use their devices' platform authenticator with Actual.

Combined with an idle or inactivity timeout, it would go a long way to making mobile phone users of Actual safer and keep their usage confidential.

Describe your ideal solution to this problem

Add Webauthn as an authentication method.
