Sign in UX changes
We've updated the Loomio sign-in forms.
Previously you would enter your email, press continue, then the system would ask you for a password or send a code.
We also never asked people to set a password and instead just sent email codes to sign in.
This had a couple of drawbacks which we wanted to fix:
It introduced a wait for loading between entering email and password
Sign in with a code is ok when emails arrive quickly, but people got stuck when emails were slow to arrive
It was possible to reveal who had accounts, if you knew someone's email address
So with this update:
So now the email and password fields are on the screen at the same time.
We've added passkey support. If your device supports passkeys, I highly recommend using them.
We're asking everyone to add a passkey or password when they sign-in with a code.
Please share any good or bad experiences you want me to know about. Thanks for reading :-)
