Mozilla's Firefox web browser will soon support sign-ins on multi-page login forms. Most login forms on today's Internet have two fields that accept the username and the password as input. Some login forms have switched from the default way of signing-in to sites to a multi-page login form. These divide the process of logging-in to two forms on two different pages.
Google introduced a new sign-in experience with
a multi-page login design in 2015, and changed the design again in 2017 when it launched a
new unified design for Google logins.
Google offered the following explanation for switching from a single-sign-in experience to a multi-page experience:
- Reduced confusion among people who have multiple Google accounts.
- In preparation for future authentication solutions.
- To improve the experience for SAML SSO users.
Users with password managers ran into issues, as most did not support multi-page login forms at the time. Many support multi-page login flows today.
