<aside> 💡 PassLock focuses on providing an excellent Apple ecological application experience, therefore, we have chosen to only support Apple ID as the only login method. This decision was based on several important factors, and this article will explore why we only offer Apple ID login and how it can benefit you.

PassLock is designed specifically for Apple users and aims to provide tight integration with iOS, iPadOS and macOS. By only supporting Apple ID login, we can take full advantage of Apple's authentication and security features to ensure the highest level of protection of your data.
Apple ID is one of the core authentication methods in the Apple ecosystem, employing multiple layers of security including two-factor authentication and biometrics. Therefore, by only supporting Apple ID login, we can provide you with a more secure login method to ensure that your password and data are protected. In iOS and iPadOS, you can use face recognition to log in to our app. In macOS, you can use your fingerprint to log in. This was also the inspiration for me to design this logo that looks like a calculator.
Focusing on Apple ID login also makes your experience simpler and more consistent. You don't need to remember additional usernames and passwords, just use the Apple ID you're already familiar with. This reduces confusion and errors when logging in, improving overall convenience.
PassLock stores data in your private iCloud, which means you can easily sync passwords and data between your iPhone, iPad, and Mac. Supporting only Apple ID login helps simplify this process and makes data synchronization seamless without any additional configuration on your part.
Considering the positioning and target audience of our apps, we plan to focus our future development on continuing to improve functionality and performance within the Apple ecosystem. This means we will continue to focus on providing the best Apple ID login experience, rather than investing resources in development to support other platforms. This will ensure we can better meet the needs of Apple users.
All in all, focusing on only supporting Apple ID login is to provide a great Apple ecosystem experience, enhance security, simplify your experience, and lay a solid foundation for future development direction. We are committed to providing high-quality password management services to Apple users, making it easier for every user to manage passwords and improve online security.
