Passwordless can be an excellent approach to reduce user drops on the signup page with better UX practices. User's love to enter without providing huge details.

Progressive disclosure always reduces the complexity. So we have to use Progressive Disclosure UX principle to ask for more details based on the user's existence in the system. It's impossible to ask for any other information with a unified interface because we don't know the user is new or existing. It can be implemented in mobile devices as one-tap authentication, which means the user needs to tap once and sign up the user and start the session. It allows users not to remember if they are already registered or not. If the user is new, internally create an account and log in and for registered users, start the user's session. Either use is new or existing, just let them use a single interface. The passwordless interface must be designed as a unified interface for authentication. It removes all password frictions and allows users to signup with a single click. Seriously, this all need to do by users to keep their account safe on your app! Password Managers are a solution, but they have their issues, installing their extensions and software, Device sync available with paid plans only, and so on.īut Passwordless is the answer to it.


If you remove complex password requirements, the user will use simple passwords that can be hacked easily. Losing users on the signup page is wasting your marketing and growth budget because the signup page has a strong password requirement for ensuring security.
