Greetings Browser Vendors,

Have any of you implemented user-agent hints (https://www.w3.org/TR/webauthn-3/#enum-hints)?

If so, can you describe how it influences the UX?

Thanks,
  Norman

Client Hints has been added to https://passkeys.dev/device-support/

Short answer: it is not available by default in the 4 major browsers so it is not yet usable in production.

You can test with chrome canary.

It is behind the chrome://flags/#enable-experimental-web-platform-features flag.  Turn that on.

I think Google is looking for feedback on it.


The Yubico developer test page lets you set those flags.
