What If Your App Let Users Sign In With Their Face or Fingerprint?
What if your app could let users sign in faster without typing a password every time? π
Biometric authentication such as Face ID and fingerprint login can make returning to an application faster while adding another layer of account protection.
It can be especially useful for apps handling sensitive information such as fintech, healthcare, personal documents, or private accounts.

Two home screens for the same digital identity wallet, before and after the alongID brand styleguide.
The old one showed your actual credentials. You saw the card, you tapped it, done. It also showed a log of what just happened.
The new one replaced the cards with counts, 9 identities and 6 trusted connections, and moved Scan QR to the top, because scanning a code is what people open this app to do.

Shielda explores a cleaner dashboard experience that helps businesses monitor their digital footprint across domains, email, and social channels.

Instead of forcing users to interpret complex security data, Shielda helps them understand what happened, how serious it is, and what to do next.
