Whether using an Apple or Android phone, the Alaan mobile app allows you to enable biometric authentication by default, after your first successful login with your password. This authentication method offers several benefits.

Enhanced Security

Adds an extra layer of security by using facial recognition technology to authenticate your identity. This reduces the likelihood of unauthorized access to your account, as only you can unlock it with your face.

Convenience

Often more convenient than typing in a password or PIN every time you want to access the app. It streamlines the login process, making it quicker and easier, especially for frequently used apps.

Protection Against Unauthorized Access

Helps protect your sensitive information in case your device gets lost or stolen. Since your face is required to unlock the app, it becomes more difficult for someone else to access your account without your permission.

You can also enable this later by going to your phone settings and selecting fingerprint or face unlock.
