Microsoft Edge it has a very interesting new function announced by the Microsoft company for users all over the world, it will make life much easier for all those who use the browser. We are talking about a function that I really like iPhone X, more precisely one that allows the complete forgetting of passwords and the use of the face, including in Microsoft Edge, often, to allow logging in to various websites that we access frequently.
Microsoft Edge has this new function implemented in Windows 10 thanks to the Windows Hello system, which is designed to provide facial recognition in computers that have an infrared camera or a fingerprint reader. Thanks to this system, Microsoft Edge will allow users to scan their face and log in to any websites as you can see in the image below, this functionality greatly simplifying internet browsing.
Microsoft Edge: UNEXPECTED Function Taken from iPhone X
Microsoft Edge has this new functionality integrated in the latest beta versions of Windows 10 starting with 17723, and Microsoft would like to launch it in version 1809, during this year. The problem with Microsoft's new technology is that websites must implement a special authentication system for Microsoft Edge to allow the use of Windows Hello to log in to websites, so everything will not work right from the start.
"Beginning with build 17723, Microsoft Edge supports the CR version of Web Authentication. Our implementation provides the most complete support for Web Authentication to date, with support for a wider variety of authenticators than other browsers. Windows Hello allows users to authenticate without a password on any Windows 10 device, using biometrics—face and fingerprint recognition—or a PIN number to sign in to web sites.”
However, Microsoft Edge brings a very interesting system for those who want to get rid of the obligation to remember passwords to log in to websites, something that I can say is extremely great in iPhone X at the moment. The similar experience will arrive in Microsoft Edge after Google Chrome has already implemented the basic technology for some time, but support for websites is also needed, something that in the case of iPhone X is not necessary.
