lisa suggested an idea · Aug 02, 2017 at 08:23 AM · Authentication

Provide secure GameCenter login

It is recommended here that we not use LoginWithGameCenter because it is insecure. However, Apple has now provided a way for 3rd-party services to authenticate GameCenter credentials with generateIdentityVerificationSignature(). Since GameCenter is the easiest recoverable login option on iOS for the player, it would be nice if this offered the same amount of security as Google Play Games on Android.

Agreed, hopefully this feature will be added soon. One soon to be in production game (mine) would greatly benefit from it.

Yes, my new (in development) game needs a good way to have a retrievable account in iOS, and so far Facebook is the only convenient option for the player.

Would be awesome to also have Game Center secure support.

I'd also love to use this to provide recoverable-account support on iOS to my next game.

Hello,

It looks like this feature is now one of the most upvoted, is there a chance to have it in a next release?

Thanks

We track on all feature requests across our community, and this forum is one of those inputs (though not the only one). We do have this feature on our overall priority list, and we're hoping to get it into an upcoming sprint, but we don't have a date we can provide just yet.

We are also totally waiting for this. Seems to be a big requirement before releasing the final version of our game.
