If you’ve lost access to your passkey, you can recover it directly from the Login page (not from the desktop app).
1. Start recovery
On the Sign in screen, select Lost access → enter your email → complete the captcha and press Continue:
You’ll receive an email with a secure link to continue the recovery process from no-reply@bron.org
2. Follow the link
Open the email from Bron and click Recover access. The next steps depend on your workspace setup:
Case 1: No existing accounts
If you don’t have any existing accounts created with this email, you’ll be able to restore access immediately and create a new passkey.
Case 2: Existing accounts with guardians
If you have at least one existing account and guardians assigned —
a 48-hour security delay begins before recovery continues.
Once the delay ends, you’ll need to collect recovery codes from two guardians and enter them in Bron to set a new passkey.
Case 3: Existing accounts without guardians
If you have existing accounts but no guardians, the system applies an extended 180-day security delay.
After that period, you’ll be able to restore access on your own.
Browser Compatibility:
If you are unable to create a new passkey in your browser, you may need to remove the existing passkey associated with the site. Depending on your browser, this can be done in:
Chrome: Chrome settings - Autofill and Passwords - Google Password Manager
Safari: Your device's Passwords app
3. Security note
During the delay, all your current passkeys remain active. If you sign in with your existing passkey while a recovery request is active, the recovery will be automatically cancelled.
If you encounter any issues during the recovery process, contact our support team by email at support@bron.org
