How OTP authentication helps your app
A familiar face
One-time passwords are a well-known flow to most users and do not involve new cognitive load.
Safer than passwords
Since OTP codes are meant for one-time use, they are resistant to credential stuffing and replay attacks.
One factor, two factor
OTP authentication can easily fit into step-up or multi-factor authentication flows.
