I do not have proton so i am curious: - why do someone need a "windows" app if there is a web app, it could be a pwa that works everywhere (like teams, outlook) is it true it does not work on linux? if you have a web app it hould work everywhere - why do I have to give an email adress to create an account? - will you support passkeys? - can I add phone number or something that my proton account is backed up with my real identity? I mean if it is my pass manager account, I want to be able to provide my real identity in emergency and get everything back

Hi! 1. We are currently working on the Proton Pass web app. Some users prefer to have native desktop apps, which is why we're looking into developing those too. 2. Proton Pass allows you to generate email aliases (it's one of its core functions), therefore, it needs to be connected to an email account. You however don't need to use this function - you can create a separate Proton account just for Proton Pass, so your main email account wouldn't be connected to your Proton Pass account. 3. We plan to support Passkey in the future. 4. You can set up an account recovery method on your Proton account(s), of course: https://proton.me/support/set-account-recovery-methods.

if you implement passkeys, who generates the key pair? browser, os, pass manager? if the pass manager stores and manages private keys, it should create the keys
