# Log In to the Salesforce Mobile App with Email by Default

Salesforce mobile app now defaults to email-based authentication to minimize login friction and decrease administrative overhead. By prioritizing email authentication, your login experience is more streamlined, letting you access your data faster.

**Where:** This change applies to all versions of the mobile app, in production orgs only.

**When:** This change is available for iOS starting March 23, 2026 and Android starting April 06, 2026.
