> Take my father, there is no way he could use a password manager, or two factor, it's just never going to happen.
Have you tried the “passkey” integration on Apple devices? If so, do you think your father would be able to use that?
To me, it seems such a simple UX that I can’t imagine even the most technically illiterate being unable to use it. In the Apple ecosystem, there is literally no configuration for the “password manager” it’s just integrated into the Apple Account. You’d go from a notebook of passwords to just one (the main Apple ID password, for recovery etc).
Obviously “passkey” is not available in most sites yet, but I imagine that once it is, the switch might be pretty painless for the non-tech savvy. Assuming the other device manufacturers can provide similar seamless integration.
