comes months after Meta's encrypted messaging app made the feature available

iOS, open settings, then go to accounts,
which is where you'll find the option.
However, rollouts can take time, so keep checking if you don't see passkeys right away.

Alsawah also said that a QR code from
"Linked Devices" will still need to be scanned to log into the platform on other devices.

be primary devices for an account.”
