Last time I upgraded my ID, I ran into serious issues. Only one of the linked domains seemed to have full control over the ID, which caused multiple problems: login loops, unexpected wallet changes, and being unable to modify settings at all, because various projects seem to either use one of the 3 following domains below where you had to setup the same login 3 times each for one domain.

This is exactly one of the problems in the legacy Internet Identity experience with passkeys we’re hoping to resolve, by moving to a single dedicated domain (id.ai) these sort of multi-domain issues should no longer be an issue.

@wazer

Have these issues been fully resolved?

As far as I’m aware we’ve resolved various issues related to passkeys but if you come across any issues, please don’t hesitate to bring them up on the forum or by contacting support (there’s a link in the id.ai footer).

@wazer

If I upgrade now, is it still possible to downgrade again until January 26?

Yes, since the upgrade is mostly registering a new passkey for id.ai, downgrading is only a matter of removing the id.ai passkey in the legacy Internet Identity dashboard.

@wazer

I could be permanently locked out with no clear recovery path.

Recovery phrases are now also available in id.ai, we highly recommend to set-up a recovery phrase since those do not depend on external factors e.g. a broken YubiKey, lost access to password manager, breaking change in passkey browser API, DNS issues, losing access to e.g. Google account etc.

In case you already have a recovery phrase in the legacy Internet Identity product, this is compatible with id.ai.
