Google Introduces Selfie Video Sign-In for Secure Account Recovery
Selfie for sign-in: a new, easy way to access your Google Account
We are launching a new way to access your Google Account using a short selfie video. This feature helps you sign in if you are locked out or lack access to your usual devices. By recording guided head movements, you create a secure backup method that remains encrypted and under your control, ensuring your data stays private while preventing impersonation attempts.
Your selfie video is yours and you're in control. It is recorded and securely stored with your consent, and you can delete it at any time in your Google Account.
