iOS users used to require Touch or Face ID authentication to open Google Chrome

[{"selector":"#anim-27ae85ae-0fbc-446e-806e-1826c9b01f5c [data-leaf-element=\"true\"]","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(42.83088213272497%, 0, 0)","translate3d(0%, 0, 0)"]},"delay":0,"duration":2000,"easing":"cubic-bezier(.3,0,.55,1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-78733065-2747-4cf5-a582-f026c7a33158","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(-117.60798%, 0px, 0)","translate3d(0px, 0px, 0)"]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.4, 0.4, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-21a4027c-2f4a-40b6-a30a-94aa6738932a","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.4, 0.4, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-db84ad4f-5b5d-42d3-ac2f-ab24b7f45f84","keyframes":{"transform":["scale(0.15)","scale(1)"]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.4, 0.4, 0.0, 1)","fill":"forwards"}]

After that Google take time about one year to implement it on Android.

[{"selector":"#anim-73f774d7-68a6-455f-bb20-905709dc734e [data-leaf-element=\"true\"]","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(-44.301470354502655%, 0, 0)","translate3d(0%, 0, 0)"]},"delay":0,"duration":2000,"easing":"cubic-bezier(.3,0,.55,1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-4109c103-132a-4ab0-8ea7-384db42ecc52","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(115.94685%, 0px, 0)","translate3d(0px, 0px, 0)"]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.4, 0.4, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-a52d0005-8f8d-4682-954d-67c041fddb5f","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.4, 0.4, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-d9c348e0-7b3f-4cb7-9f97-905e9cd5efab","keyframes":{"transform":["scale(0.15)","scale(1)"]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.4, 0.4, 0.0, 1)","fill":"forwards"}]

But unfortunately, Android users can only use biometrics

[{"selector":"#anim-f97bffe7-b4be-4c4e-bb96-40e0811ad0f6 [data-leaf-element=\"true\"]","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(31.249999886225726%, 0, 0)","translate3d(0%, 0, 0)"]},"delay":0,"duration":2000,"easing":"cubic-bezier(.3,0,.55,1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-b2d39bd5-d75e-4bd4-aba3-aaf0ab4cd112","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(-120.93023%, 0px, 0)","translate3d(0px, 0px, 0)"]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.4, 0.4, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-1ab11d0c-93c0-4ca6-ac5a-9c2f78a2e63a","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.4, 0.4, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-2fa18a1e-c9bc-429f-8776-95fe77fc0f58","keyframes":{"transform":["scale(0.15)","scale(1)"]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.4, 0.4, 0.0, 1)","fill":"forwards"}]

But Face recognition will not support on Android.
