It is now possible to create an account on Twitter through Sign in with Apple

Twitter sign in with Apple

When Apple released Sign in with Apple at WWDC 2019, affirmed that each and every one of the applications available in the App Store that offered support to be used with other platforms such as Google or Facebook had to also offer the possibility of logging in with Apple.

It seems that Apple has made this measure more flexible, since today, we can still find many applications that have not adopted this option being Twitter is one of the just announced the launch of the option to create an account through the Apple account.

Apple provides support for applications and websites to provide users with the ability to update an existing account to sign in with Apple, but Twitter doesn't seem to have adopted this feature yet.

Apple has strict guidelines on when an app must support sign-in with Apple. For this reason, Twitter for iOS has simultaneously added support for logging in with Google (an option that was available in the version of Twitter for Android for a little over a year), since the guidelines of the App Store They would have forbidden you to add support for logging in with Google but not for logging in with Apple.

Applications that use a social or third-party login service (such as Facebook, Google, Twitter, LinkedIn, Amazon…) to configure or authenticate the user's main account with the application They must also offer Sign in with Apple as an equivalent option.

To use login with Apple, you need to use two-factor authentication and have signed in to iCloud with that Apple ID on your Apple device.

If you have been thinking about giving Twitter a chance for a while (it is much more than a social network of trolls), with the option Sign in with Apple you have no excuse not to do it, since if you do not like it, you can unsubscribe quickly without that Jack Dorsey's company know what your real email address is and let him take advantage of it to invite you to join again.
