OISY has rolled out an updated login experience built on Internet Identity 2.0, aiming to make access to the platform quicker and more familiar while keeping its privacy-first foundations intact. The change focuses on how users sign in, rather than altering accounts themselves, and introduces optional support for Apple, Google and Microsoft credentials, removing the need to remember a separate login number.
For users, the most immediate difference is ease. The new flow mirrors sign-in methods people already use across many apps and services, which reduces friction without lowering security. Logging in is faster, works smoothly across devices and relies on the same strong protections that have been part of Internet Identity from the start. OISY describes it as an experience upgrade rather than a structural change, and that distinction matters.
What has not changed is just as important as what has. Wallet assets, transaction history and identity data remain exactly where they are. There is no new account to set up and no migration of funds or records. From a user perspective, this helps avoid the uncertainty that can come with platform updates, particularly in digital asset environments where trust and continuity are central.
The transition itself has been designed to be gradual. The previous login method will stay available for a limited period, giving users time to switch when it suits them. After 26 January, all login routes, including old links, will lead to the new Internet Identity 2.0 screen. This approach gives OISY room to standardise the experience while avoiding a forced overnight change.
For those who choose to upgrade now, the process happens inside the app, with step by step guidance intended to remove guesswork. That internal walkthrough is a practical touch, especially for users who may be cautious about login changes or unfamiliar with newer identity standards.
From a broader perspective, the update reflects a wider push in digital products to make security feel less technical and more natural. Strong protection often comes with complexity, which can deter everyday use. By leaning into familiar sign-in options while preserving privacy and self custody principles, OISY is attempting to narrow that gap. At the same time, some users may prefer the original flow and will want reassurance during the transition period. Keeping the older method available, even temporarily, helps address that concern.
Internet Identity 2.0 positions itself as a new benchmark for privacy-preserving digital identity, but its success within OISY will likely be judged on something simpler: whether users notice the change less because it feels easier. If access becomes smoother without altering how accounts work, the upgrade will have done its job.
