Microsoft is ending support for passwords in its Authenticator app by August 1, 2025, moving to a more streamlined autofill experience. Users will need to transition to other password managers or rely on passkeys, as saved passwords in Authenticator will no longer be accessible post-deadline. #MicrosoftAuthenticator #PasswordSupport #Passkeys #Autofill
Keypoints
