Don’t forget: Microsoft Authenticator is dumping your passwords in a week

Don’t forget: Microsoft Authenticator is dumping your passwords in a week

The article discusses the upcoming changes to Microsoft Authenticator, where the app will be losing several features starting August 1st. Specifically, the ability to add and import passwords, as well as autofill functionality, will be discontinued. While saved passwords will be accessible through Microsoft Edge, the app will no longer support generated passwords or password history. However, the app will continue to support passkeys, and users must keep the Microsoft Authenticator app as the manager for their passkeys. If users don't want to use Microsoft Edge as their password manager, they can export their passwords from the Microsoft Authenticator app and import them into a different service, such as a paid password manager like Dashlane or the free Bitwarden.
