This article is for ANYONE USING SNAPPLIFY.


If you are signing in to Snapplify with a Snapplify username and password and you want to sign in with Google instead, you can choose Google as your preferred method of authentication. In doing so, you allow Google to sign in to Snapplify on your behalf, using your existing username and password. 


You'll need to enable this authentication manually and it may look slightly different, depending on the device you are doing it from, but it's as simple as clicking a button.


You don't have to register a new Google account to authenticate with Google. If you already have a username and password for Snapplify, you can follow this method to enable authentication via Google with your existing logins.


If you wish to choose Microsoft or Apple as your preferred method of authentication, you'll need to repeat the process for each third party to enable the authentication.
