Although Twitter is not as popular in some countries, such as the US, there are enough people who are potentially willing to use the platform to share short messages. Now the task is simplified thanks to the possibility of authorization using Google and Apple accounts.
This feature first appeared in beta last month, but is now much more available in many regions. According to those who have already tried to sign up with an Apple account, the procedure is very simple, without passwords and email addresses, and Google login even allows you to use the avatar of the corresponding account by default.
So far, the procedure is not completely universal. For example, logging in with a Google account is possible from the iOS, Android and PC ecosystems, but with an Apple account, you can only log in from iOS (in the future, as the developer promises, the functionality will be extended to computers). According to some reports, the current version does not support the new authorization options. On Android, authorization using an Apple account is not possible, at least not yet.
Twitter has added the ability to log in using Google and Apple services
Moreover, it seems that changing the password after creating a Twitter account with Apple will not work - the page asks for the current password. Twitter's support section mentions the ability to unlink an Apple or Google account, but again, this is only for desktop users — this feature won't be available for iOS yet. Google users have more options in this regard, they will be able to reset their password after disconnecting their account.
It seems that the simultaneous appearance of support for authorization using Apple and Google accounts is a coincidence. The App Store instructions clearly state that this is an app that allows you to sign up or sign in with third-party services, because Apple should always offer one of the alternatives.
Recently, the Tagansky District Court of Moscow upheld the decision of a judge on administrative violations for failure to remove prohibited content against Facebook Inc. and Twitter, recognizing the decision to impose a fine as legal, reports the RBC resource with reference to the court's press service.
The press service also reported that all appeals against the rulings against Twitter, which were considered that day, were also rejected. Interlocutors of RBC clarified that the court is considering six claims against the microblogging service. The total amount of fines to be collected from Twitter is about 330 thousand dollars.
