Hi, Is there a work around to add sms otp login ? Instead of email ? ---

Not at the moment, no. Having a user email address is a fundamental requirement of many Glide features, so I don’t see that changing anytime soon. ---

But we can have it as an option, when most of the apps work on otp login ---

Glide uses a OTP, delivered via email, which is basically free. Delivery via SMS would incur carrier costs, which somebody has to pay for. Would you be prepared to pay for that? ---

Yeah we are, we have our own sms api with MSG91 since we wanted the user experience. Our website uses sms otp login, we need the same here since we cant ask users to login using email otp here and sms otp there ---

Add your vote below. > [@SMS for Verification](https://community.glideapps.com/t/sms-for-verification/9388): > > Hi! Would be great to have the option to do the verification via SMS instead of email. I know SMS should be more costly, but maybe this could be a pro feature. Thank you! ---

I definitely need this feature if I am to go ahead with a subscription with Glide. I am creating a Order Management app for F&B industry. Most of the users of the app don’t even have email addresses. We are talking about chefs, waiters, restaurant workers, central kitchen helpers. All they have is a mobile number. Currently we take orders through Whatsapp. We can’t force or expect them to have an email. Most of them are very lowly educated and don’t even know how to use email. We have a subscription to Twilio so, I wouldn’t mind incurring the cost for this.
