Overview

These visual UI flow diagrams showcase best-practice passkey authentication as implemented in Corbado Connect, our enterprise-grade passkey solution. While these flows are production-tested patterns from our platform, they serve as universal best practices that any team can use to implement passkey authentication optimally.
Powered by Corbado Connect: These flows represent the reference implementation from Corbado Connect, featuring Passkey Intelligence, smart fallback strategies, and platform-optimized UX patterns. You can implement these exact patterns in your own solution or use Corbado Connect to get them out-of-the-box.

What You’ll Learn

  • Complete user journeys: Explore the full sign-up and login experiences across all platforms
  • Every decision point: Review all major screens, error states, and fallback scenarios
  • Platform-specific patterns: See how passkeys work on iOS, Android, macOS, and Windows
  • Real-world edge cases: Understand error handling, cross-device scenarios, and recovery flows

The documentation is designed to be visual and flow-oriented, showing actual UI screens and user decision trees so you can quickly understand each scenario and integrate it into your product with confidence.

UI Flow Categories

In this documentation, MFA is not mandatory by default. This means single-factor accounts (e.g., accounts secured only with a password) are supported. However, MFA can be enforced if required by the application or compliance. When MFA is optional, the passkey append option allows users who initially registered without MFA to later add additional factors for stronger security.
