Decision

What the current evidence supports

Human editorial judgment · 2026-06-28

Low-friction candidate

Why
Cross-vendor (Chrome 136/142 and Safari 18) shipped feature with a no-UI silent path and documented adoption uplift; the main cost is a bounded, well-documented server-side change to ignore UP/UV flags.
Next
Call navigator.credentials.create() with mediation:'conditional' immediately after a successful password login; abort any pending conditional get first, and silently swallow InvalidStateError/NotAllowedError/AbortError.
