Key Features

Secure Passkey Storage

Crayonic Mobile ID Wallet provides a superior alternative to native cloud-based passkey managers like Google Password Manager or iCloud Keychain. Unlike cloud-synced solutions, your passkeys remain exclusively on your device, protected by hardware-backed security.

Key advantages over cloud-based passkey managers: - No cloud synchronization - Passkeys never leave your device, eliminating cloud breach risks - Hardware-backed security - All credentials stored in device secure enclave (Trusted Execution Environment) - Biometric protection - Access controlled by fingerprint, Face ID, or device PIN - Enterprise control - IT administrators can manage and audit credential usage - Privacy-first design - Your authentication data stays under your control

Dual Operating Modes

1. Standalone Mode (Direct Authentication)

Use your passkeys directly from your smartphone without any additional hardware: - Web authentication - Sign in to websites and web applications using FIDO2/WebAuthn - Native app authentication - Authenticate to mobile and desktop applications - Cross-platform compatibility - Works with any FIDO2-compatible service - No additional hardware required - Your phone is your security key

2. Bridge Mode (Proximity Authentication)

Connect to Crayonic Bridge for seamless desktop authentication: - Automatic proximity login - Approach your workstation to log in automatically - Hands-free authentication - No need to touch your phone or computer - Automatic logout - Walk away and your session locks automatically - Multi-device support - One phone can authenticate to multiple workstations - Enterprise deployment - Ideal for shared workspaces and hot-desking environments
