auth.ng
Product changelog

What is new on auth.ng

We ship in the open. Here is a running log of the features, security work and fixes that make verifying a Nigerian identity safer and simpler. Newest first.

  1. June 2026

    Live status board and account help

    • New

      A live status page now shows real health for sign-in, verification, the OIDC provider and the database, checked the moment the page loads. No made-up uptime numbers.

    • New

      Support moved fully to tickets tied to your verified identity, so no request can be filed in your name by someone else.

    • Improved

      The account portal now shows every app you have signed in to, with a one-tap way to revoke access.

  2. May 2026

    In-house identity verification

    • New

      ID document and face checks now run on our own engine, on ordinary CPU hardware, so nothing about your face or ID leaves our infrastructure.

    • New

      Re-verification lets a returning user confirm it is really them without starting the whole flow over.

    • Security

      Verification submissions are processed and then purged, so raw documents are not left sitting around after a decision.

  3. April 2026

    Sign in with auth.ng, across the family

    • New

      One identity now signs you in across every auth.ng brand through a single OAuth 2.1 and OIDC provider.

    • Security

      Tokens are signed with EdDSA and bound to the client with DPoP, so a stolen token is far harder to replay.

    • Improved

      New device? You get a second-factor prompt. Trusted devices stay trusted for thirty days so you are not nagged every login.

  4. March 2026

    Developer platform

    • New

      Create an app, grab test and live API keys, and add sign-in with a few lines of code.

    • New

      Webhooks let your backend hear about verification and identity events as they happen.

    • Improved

      Test mode uses sandbox data and stores no real identity, so you can build safely before going live.

  5. February 2026

    The account portal

    • New

      A single place to see your verified profile, manage your data, and control what each app is allowed to know about you.

    • New

      Download your data or request deletion straight from the privacy section.

    • Fixed

      Recovery emails now arrive faster and land in the inbox instead of spam for most providers.
