An autologin wallet is a wallet that allows you to access your cryptocurrency or other digital assets without requiring you to enter a password or passphrase every time. This can be convenient if you use your wallet frequently and do not want to have to enter your password or passphrase every time you access it.
Some wallets such as Ledger Nano, Trezor, and MyCrypto support autologin functionality. However, autologin can be a security risk if your device is lost or stolen, as anyone who gains access to your device will also be able to access your wallet without needing to enter a password or passphrase.
Currently another alternative that many wallet apps use is to combine social auth and wallet binding along with login, so that user can log in via their social account each time (including the first time!) without the hustle of entering wallet passwords.
To create a social authentication system with wallet creation, you will need to follow these steps:
Choose a social authentication provider, such as Google, Facebook, or Twitter.
Create a developer account with the chosen provider and obtain the necessary credentials (e.g., client ID and secret).
Use the provider's API or SDK to implement the social authentication flow in your application. This will typically involve redirecting the user to the provider's login page, where they can enter their login credentials and authorize your application to access their account.
Once the user has successfully authenticated with the provider, you can use their social profile information (e.g., name, email address) to create a new wallet for them within your application.
Store the user's wallet information (e.g., private key, recovery phrase) securely, either on the user's device or in a secure server-side database.
When the user wants to access their wallet in the future, they can simply log in with their social authentication provider instead of entering a separate password or passphrase.
You can also choose to use a wallet provider with social authentication feature, in such case you don’t need in-depth blockchain knowledge to be able to develop a wallet with social auth feature.
It is important to note that social authentication is not a foolproof security measure, as it relies on the security of the user's social media account. If the user's social media account is compromised, an attacker may be able to access their wallet as well. For this reason, it is a good idea to implement additional security measures, such as two-factor authentication, to protect the user's wallet.
