Changes:

  • Update "Get invited and onboard to TechPass" page to add Step 7 for passwordless
    • Initially wanted to have passwordless step after MFA, but as this is first-time sign-in, it is better to let the first-time sign-in process (force change password and tnc) fully completed. So add passwordless as last step
  • Log in with TechPass, restructure a bit
    • Existing separates sign-in to service and to TechPass Portal as a separate steps, but actually are the same
    • So combine and separate instead based on the authentication methods

How it looks like:

Can I ask ah.. we can configure the mobile authenticator to turn on biometrics before entering the app and after entering number for number matching. I don't see the instructions and no screenshots.. can we not turn it on?
