Figure 1: Example Credential Manager bottom sheet showing
authentication options for passkeys, passwords, and federated
sign-in.
Boost your app's user experience by seamlessly integrating
passwordless authentication with passkeys using Credential Manager. Credential
Manager is an Android Jetpack library that unifies API support for most major
authentication methods, including passkeys, passwords, and federated sign-in
solutions (such as Sign-in with Google).
Credential Manager automatically displays a unified bottom-sheet for modern
authentication methods, and is the modern replacement for existing
authentication implementations, including Smart Lock for Passwords on
Android, and One Tap. Credential Manager's unified sign-in interface gives
your users a clear, familiar, and consistent experience, reduces churn and
improves registration and sign-in speeds.
