The reason that some implementations of passkeys never mention “passkey” is because we’re in a phase with consumer passkey awareness that apps and websites are seeing higher uptake by leading with familiar concepts, like beloved biometrics. The OS or password manager will later introduce the term “passkey”.
In fact, this concept is acknowledged in the FIDO Alliance’s “UX Guidelines for Passkey Creation and Sign-ins”:
“2. Associate the unfamiliar (passkeys) with the familiar.
Passkeys are a new term, a new visual symbol, and a new authentication method for consumers. Whenever possible,
help them understand the nature and value of passkeys by associating them to familiar concepts, visuals, and
experiences. For example, biometric experiences are familiar.” https://fidoalliance.org/wp-content/uploads/2023/05/FIDO-Alliance-UX-Guidelines-for-Passkey-Creation-and-Sign-ins.pdf
