X (Twitter) has introduced an important security innovation for Android users. The platform aims to make users’ accounts more secure by integrating passkey support into the Android application instead of passwords. X had previously rolled out this feature for iOS users, and now Android users will be able to benefit from this powerful security measure.

X expands support for passkeys instead of passwords

Social media platform X has taken security a step further and started offering Android users passkey support instead of passwords. Unlike traditional passwords, this technology increases account security by creating a digital authentication credential. Passkeys instead of passwords eliminate the risk of passwords being guessed or stolen, helping users keep their accounts more secure.

X users can access the security settings within the app to enable this feature. Under the heading “Additional Password Protection”, this option enables the use of passkeys instead of passwords. Users can make their accounts more secure by following this step. However, you still need to create an account password to use this feature.

Passkey technology has recently become increasingly popular among tech companies and online services. This security measure was developed to make access to users’ accounts more secure, and is particularly useful when passwords are weak. With this technology, X aims to take account security to the next level.

Passkey support instead of passwords was first introduced for iOS users in the US, and then rolled out globally. Now Android users can also benefit from this new layer of security. Passkeys are seen as a big step forward for many users as they are more secure than traditional passwords.
