Google introduces Selfie Video, a new secure sign‑in method to log into your account. Users set up by recording guided head movements; the“M video is saved on Google’s servers after encryption.

Signing in compares the new recording with the original for verification, allowing access if you forget your password or lose your device.

Privacy controls let you delete the video at any time. Google deploys multiple layers of defense to protect against deep fakes and fake photos.

Users can also pair Selfie Video with recovery contacts for added safety. The feature runs alongside passkeys, which are 40% faster than typing a password. Passkeys offer a password‑free alternative that can’t be phished.

Google continues to push passkeys as a strong, convenient sign‑in option while giving users another biometric choice.
