X, run by Elon Musk, has added support for “passkeys” as a login option for iOS users in the US.
“Today we’re excited to launch Passkeys as a login option for our US-based users on iOS,” the company announced on Tuesday at X.
“Passkey is a new, easy-to-use, and secure way to log into your account from your device. Passkeys are more secure than traditional passwords because they are individually generated by your device for each account.”
According to the company, passkeys will provide a stronger level of security for your account because they are uniquely generated by your device, and they are less vulnerable to security threats such as fraudulent, fraudulent, or unauthorized attacks.
Furthermore, the microblogging platform also noted that “your passkey is never shared with X to ensure maximum security and reduce the possibility of unauthorized account access”.
Meanwhile, X is rolling out a feature for Android users to make audio and video calls directly from the app. According to a post by one of the X engineers working on the project, Android users will be able to use the feature after an app update.
“Audio and video calls on X are rolling out to Android users today! Update your app and call your mom,” ex-engineer Enrique posted on Friday.
However, this feature will be available only for premium users.
