Metamask, an independent crypto wallet developed by Consensys, has introduced a new “social login” feature that allows users to create, back up and restore wallets using their Google or Apple accounts.
The service is powered by Web3Auth, a third-party authentication provider. Metamask said support for additional login options will continue.
This update eliminates the need to manually manage 12 words of secret recovery phrases. This was considered a major barrier for new users entering Crypto. Instead, users can authenticate with familiar logins and passwords to access assets through their devices.
Metamask highlighted that users can set up both methods and preserve options for recovery phrases along with social login.
