MetaMask launches social login feature, allowing users to create wallets using their Google or Apple accounts

ChainCatcher news, according to The Block, MetaMask has launched a new "social login" feature that allows users to create, back up, and restore cryptocurrency wallets using their Google or Apple accounts.

This feature simplifies the process of creating and managing non-custodial wallets, allowing users to log in with their social accounts and create a password, while the system automatically generates a 12-word mnemonic (SRP) in the background. MetaMask emphasizes that even MetaMask itself cannot access the user's complete recovery information, thus maintaining the self-custody nature of the wallet. However, users should take care to properly safeguard their passwords, as losing them will result in the inability to recover the wallet.
