When Apple introduced iOS 13 10 months ago, it included many new functions, which have been improving with the passing of updates. One of these improvements was "Apple Sign-In", the way users find websites and applications with our Apple data and in a completely private way. This is definitely a job the answer to traditional ways of getting in touch with Facebook or Google, but Apple's style.
A great way to understand how this new function works is Apple's official description of its identification system: "You can now access applications and web pages with your Apple ID without completing forms or creating new passwords. Just contact Login with Apple, make sure it's your own ID or touch ID and you're already inside. Apps can only ask for your name and email address. And if you like, we can create a unique address for you and messages to be transferred to your original account. We do not record your activity and remain in control of your data"
However, for the project to succeed Apple needs to collaborate on the developer of applications and websites to install it, and gradually seem to do it. Apple has set April 30 as the deadline for developers to install this feature on all of their Google or Facebook sign-in apps, though we already know that this date is delayed until June 30 due to the current situation.

A few major apps have recently been updated to support Apple's new entry feature. As reported MacRumors, apps are as important as New York Times, IFTTT or Medium already compatible with "Sign in with Apple".
This feature is very well received as it is the safest option for similar login services. It is the easiest way to see us is using a face ID or Touch ID and no personal information was sent use or website developers.
