Build Information

Version: 2026.1.0 (21141)
📱 Fairphone FP5 🤖 15@35 📦 prod
🧱 commit: bitwarden/android/release/2026.1-rc42@67f83e3020b53f8d41e63a7d8f6bdb759ccb9ddc
💻 build source: bitwarden/android/actions/runs/21299199924/attempts/1
🦀 SDK: 2.0.0-4441-c5a3b833
🌩 Server: 2026.1.0 @ EU
Additional Information
Most important thing first: it seems to be connected to certain browsers! In my case, I get those errors only when I use Ironfox (which is in the list of the "privileged apps") - and not on Brave, Vivaldi, Firefox, Edge (those were the ones I tested it now).
And then for context, this issue was first reported here, but as you can see in the latest posts there, it doesn't seem to be an issue connected to the server (and also not to custom ROMs, as discussed there), as I could reproduce this issue with a BW EU cloud account, a stock ROM on my FP5, and the only meaningful difference seems to be the browser. (in that other GitHub issue, Fennec and Cromite were also mentioned where it wouldn't work)
[PS: IronFox 147.0.2, installed etc. via "Accrescent"]
When I try to create a passkey with Ironfox, I get this error (besides "An error has occurred. - Passkeys not supported for this app"):
Furthermore, when I try to log in with an existing passkey via Ironfox, I get those error messages (again, besides "An error has occurred. - Passkeys not supported for this app"):

Hi there,
This has been escalated for further investigation. If you have more information that can help us, please add it below.
Thanks!
@pamperer562580892423 commented on GitHub (Feb 4, 2026):
@jtodddd I think I would only like to emphasize the following (again):
@rjmidau commented on GitHub (Feb 5, 2026):
I'm experiencing the same "Passkeys not supported for this app" issue using Iceraven with Bitwarden 2026.1.0. Downgrading Bitwarden to 2025.12.1 fixes the issue.
@Klax999 commented on GitHub (Feb 5, 2026):
Can confirm this is the case, including passkeys with Discord. > .
@Klax999 commented on GitHub (Feb 5, 2026):
And passkeys are now working again for PayPal!
@pamperer562580892423 commented on GitHub (Feb 5, 2026):
@Klax999:
That is a confusing info in an issue about browsers where passkeys don't work at all at the moment... or do you want to say that all other passkeys don't work in e.g. IronFox, but only the passkey for PayPal works now there?
@Klax999 commented on GitHub (Feb 5, 2026):
Sorry. Let me be more specific. When I downgraded from 2026.1 to 2025.12.1, passkeys worked again in IronFox. I tested this using MyGov. Additionally, the standalone applications Discord and PayPal, which also didn't work for the latest update, worked again for logging in using the passkey option, too.
@pamperer562580892423 commented on GitHub (Feb 5, 2026):
@Klax999 Thanks for clarifying that. And I'm honestly glad that those passkeys for PayPal and Discord work again with 2025.12.1 then - but on the other hand, it's not relevant for this issue here.
@ViZiD commented on GitHub (Feb 6, 2026):
I'm having the same problem with version 2026.1.0 of the Fennec browser, but everything works fine in Firefox.
@ToniCipriani commented on GitHub (Feb 6, 2026):
It's broken for apps as well. I cannot use my passkey stored in Bitwarden in the EQ Bank (same website works with that same passkey on Firefox desktop web extension), Aliexpress.
Only works if I downgrade back to 2025.12.1. Currently 2026.1.0 from Play Store.
@pamperer562580892423 commented on GitHub (Feb 6, 2026):
@ToniCipriani:
I think the "passkey issue" with Android app version 2026.1.0 and apps is currently tracked here: https://github.com/bitwarden/android/issues/6454
@pamperer562580892423 commented on GitHub (Feb 7, 2026):
General info for all those who use Vivaldi browser on Android - and this now was/is not part of this GitHub issue here (since Vivaldi browser worked a few days ago as expected)...
But, Vivaldi mobile just released an update (to version 7.8), which makes it necessary to enable the following in the Vivaldi settings for it to continue to work with the Bitwarden app: go to "Autofill services", enable “Autofill using another service” there and allow Vivaldi to restart.
(this seems to work - for now?! - without enabling "autofill integration" for Vivaldi in the BW mobile app, which not even is there as an option at the moment...)
@nnnn20430 commented on GitHub (Feb 8, 2026):
2026.1.0 broke passkeys for me on every app that isn't Brave...
Fennec, Cromite, and crypto exchange apps like MEXC and Binance.
Bitwarden says "Passkeys not supported for this app"
Downgrading to 2025.12.1 makes everything work again.
@pamperer562580892423 commented on GitHub (Feb 8, 2026):
@nnnn20430:
Passkey issues with Android apps are getting tracked here: https://github.com/bitwarden/android/issues/6454 (and there are first reports, that Android app 2026.1.1 might have fixed this already - but not the issue with some browser like Fennec, Cromite, IronFox...)
@pamperer562580892423 commented on GitHub (Feb 9, 2026):
2026.1.1 just arrived on my phone - but still the same errors with IronFox as reported in my original post.
@ASM88 commented on GitHub (Feb 10, 2026):
I'm now also on 2026.1.1 and this issues still exists with Iceraven.
@KikMyaz commented on GitHub (Feb 15, 2026):
Passkey is still broken for Fennec (org.mozilla.fennec_fdroid, versionCode 1470220) as of Bitwarden 2026.1.1.
Honestly, horrified that such a basic feature keeps failing. Never ever had this issue on Proton Pass. Makes me wonder how they even perform the bare minimum tests/QAs on this app.
Cancelled subscription and moving back to Proton Pass for now until they get it back together.
@pamperer562580892423 commented on GitHub (Feb 15, 2026):
@KikMyaz As you can see, the fix (https://github.com/bitwarden/android/pull/6502) was merged five days ago (Feb 10). Since 2026.1.1 was released 10 days ago (Feb 5), I don't see how that fix could have been included in 2026.1.1. - But I would expect a fix in the next release.
@KikMyaz commented on GitHub (Feb 15, 2026):
I mean... the fact that it even took more than 5 days to fix a single comma is already bad
@pamperer562580892423 commented on GitHub (Feb 15, 2026):
@KikMyaz:
So, eventually, you don't want them to test thing first but just rush the fix? - And I thought you wanted "bare minimum tests".
@KikMyaz commented on GitHub (Feb 15, 2026):
Are you ragebaiting lol? It shouldn't even be an issue in the first place. Even vscode on default settings would prompt you the JSON isn't properly formatted if you left a comma there. You've got to not have coded in the past 5 years to even get yourself into that situation... plus let me remind you that it was working before, meaning it must have slipped past QA at least once
@pamperer562580892423 commented on GitHub (Feb 15, 2026):
@KikMyaz:
I agree. No bug should ever happen. - I still search for that piece of software. 😅
Yeah, seems so. But you can't demand more time for QA and rant about fixes taking too long at the same time.
@basnappl commented on GitHub (Feb 19, 2026):
This issue persists for me with the latest Android version (2026.2.0). Exactly as described in the original issue. Passkeys work with Chrome, but not IronFox, Cromite, or Fennec.
@pamperer562580892423 commented on GitHub (Feb 20, 2026):
@basnappl I think this is expected. It seems the fix was merged on Feb 10, but Android version 2026.2.0 only includes PRs up to Feb 5. --> The fix didn't make it into 2026.2.0.
@basnappl commented on GitHub (Feb 20, 2026):
OK, rad. Thanks for the clarification. I look forward to this being fixed in the next version!
