Bloomberg reports that Apple is ready to launch a standalone password and passkeys manager that works across iPhone, iPad, Mac, Vision Pro, and Windows PCs.

So… like the keychain works with the Windows extension?

Yeah, sounds like the blogger has no clue it’s already a thing…

No, it's like how any other password manager work. They simply reinvent that concept over the past several iOS updates.

Hopefully it has "hide my email" integrated as well since that it's key differentiator.

iOS keychain is more limited currently - it’s essentially for web pages only. Sounds like the new app will bring features to iOS that other password managers have had forever - notes, non-web passwords etc.
