Use Touch ID for Sudo on Mac
I just have a setuid root sudo binary (compiled from sudo-touchid: https://github.com/mattrajca/sudo-touchid) in my home folder ~/bin. This has worked a treat across OS updates, without hacking PAM stuff. It’s extremely convenient and has probably saved me cumulative hours in typing out my long password :)

Like https://github.com/kryptco/kr [key stored in a [...] mobile app]?
Also, newer Macs have a Secure Enclave (supports 256-bit secp256r1 ECC keys):

How often should I rotate my SSH keys?
Similar to the recommendations to use a YubiKey/hardware token, SeKey on a Mac lets you use a key generated in the Secure Enclave in an unexportable form (https://github.com/sekey/sekey)
What are some alternatives?

secretive - Store SSH keys in the Secure Enclave
pam-watchid - PAM plugin module that allows the Apple Watch to be used for authentication
pam_reattach - Reattach to the user's GUI session on macOS during authentication (for Touch ID support in tmux)
openssh-sk-winhello - A helper for OpenSSH to interact with FIDO2 and U2F security keys through native Windows Hello API
webauthn - Web Authentication: An API for accessing Public Key Credentials
bless - Repository for BLESS, an SSH Certificate Authority that runs as a AWS Lambda function
WinCryptSSHAgent - Using a Yubikey for SSH Authentication on Windows Seamlessly
pam_wtid - Patch for Apple's pam_tid PAM Touch ID module to add sudo watch authentication
OpenSK - OpenSK is an open-source implementation for security keys written in Rust that supports both FIDO U2F and FIDO2 standards.
