when user launch a webAuthN flow(PassKey) on Chrome with https://webauthn.io, the first prompt showing is “do you want to create passkey for xxxx”, when we continue to the next step which is entering PIN/FACE/Fingerprint, if user wait on that screen for longer than 10 sec, Chrome will freeze and shows “Google Play Services isn’t responding “. And this is with the newest release 23.02.14. user will need to restart and don’t wait too long on authentication screen to be able to use Passkey.

I tried the flow on Native App with FIDO2 library and same thing  happens
also tried on Android 12/13, same behaviour.

 is this a known bug? will it get fixed soon?

This is not a known issue and we can't reproduce it. Can you grab a logcat from the device after the freeze and provide it privately?

Hello, 

Is there any update on this issue?
The issue is still reproducible on using play services  23.04.13 (100400-505809224) and  23.05.14 (190400-509319212)  using Chrome browser and https://webauthn.io page, as well as for Android application using API from play-services-fido:19.0.1 and play-services-auth:20.4.1

Please see attached logs for Chrome and   https://webauthn.io case.

Thanks,
Karen
