Since my issue on GH hasn’t been noticed since May 06, I’ll try it here. Maybe, this isn’t an issue at all and can be easily “fixed” by myself.

Description

Can’t set up WebAuthn in Brave (Android). On Windows, it works fine (using Windows Hello) and even on Android Chrome.

Steps to reproduce

  1. Visit https://demo.yubico.com/webauthn-technical/registration
  2. Tap “Next”

Alternatively

  1. Visit https://webauthn.io
  2. Enter a username
  3. Tap on “Register” (nothing happens, but the debugger shows an error message)

Alternatively

  1. Visit https://webauthn.me
  2. Enter a username
  3. Tap on “Register”

Actual result
