Top Flutter Biometric and Local Authentication packages
Last updated: April 27, 2025
There are many ways to authenticate a user's identity on a mobile device. The most common method is through local authentication using device PIN, Pattern or Passcode, but another option includes biometric authentication. Biometric authentication is a type of security that uses a person's physical characteristics, such as their fingerprint or iris, to verify their identity. This type of authentication is often used in smartphones, as it is more secure than using a traditional password.
