Circle ID Help

The Circle ID Extension is a browser extension for Chrome, Edge, and Brave that lets you use the Circle ID app on your phone as a passkey on websites. Instead of remembering passwords or managing hardware keys, you scan a QR code with your phone to register or sign in.

Important: other passkeys

While the Circle ID Extension is active, it handles every passkey request in your browser. That means passkeys saved in Google Password Manager, 1Password, Windows Hello, or on a security key won't work until you disable the extension. Learn how to switch between Circle ID and other passkeys.
