# Sign-in: simpler passwords, a clearer reset page, safer social sign-in

> Sign-ups are no longer locked out, browser-generated passwords are accepted, and social sign-in joins an account only when the address is confirmed.

## What changed

- **Sign-ups work again.** New accounts created with an e-mail address are no longer locked out after registration.
- **A simpler password rule.** Passwords are 8 to 128 characters. A password shorter than 12 characters must mix at least two of letters, digits and other characters. Passwords generated by a browser or password manager are accepted. The same rule is checked on the server.
- **A reset page that explains itself.** It shows a live checklist of the rule, whether both passwords match, and why the button is not available yet. Resetting your password also confirms your e-mail address, and an older reset link stops working once you request a new one.
- **E-mail addresses match regardless of capitals** when you sign in or reset a password.
- **Social sign-in.** Google, Facebook, LinkedIn and Microsoft are offered. The same checks apply as for a password sign-in, so a disabled account cannot get in through a social account. A social sign-in is joined to an existing Enydea account with the same e-mail address only when the provider confirms that address. LinkedIn sign-in works again.
