Facebook and other services has moved beyond the password to log into sites, apps and more without the added hassle and now Twitter Digits has jumped on board. It grants its users the option to sign in with a one-off password so as to be more efficient while not becoming frustrated with forgotten codes.
The interface of Twitter Digits will look very familiar to those who have enabled two-factor authentication to log into a Twitter account. Twitter Digits is one of the first pushes towards more product developments from the platform. Twitter's VP of product for revenue, Kevin Weil, says, "As the platform grows, you won’t think about Twitter as just the consumer app. You’ll think about Twitter as a broader mobile services company."
