Microsoft Authenticator App to Delete Passwords for Millions Soon

If you've used Microsoft Authenticator to manage passwords, it's time to export them or risk losing them. The app, popular for two-factor authentication, will no longer support passwords. Data will be deleted next month, but you can use Edge browser to store them. Autofill changes will happen in stages until August 2025. Microsoft aims to combat password attacks and phishing with passkeys for faster, secure logins.

To save passwords, download Edge app or export them to another manager before August 2025. Passwords will no longer be accessible after that. Source: Metro.co.uk.
