heylogin — Modern sign-in for Android
heylogin, created by heylogin GmbH, is a free Android app that rethinks how you access apps and websites. It aims to replace legacy password managers with a faster, less error-prone sign-in flow so you don’t have to reset forgotten credentials or scramble for usernames and passwords.
Main features at a glance
- Android AutoFill support for quick, in-context sign-ins across apps and websites.
- Integration with Wear OS so you can unlock services directly from your smartwatch.
- QR-code pairing via your device camera to link other devices securely and effortlessly.
- Biometric and PIN access (fingerprint or PIN) so you can authenticate without typing a username or password.
- A central vault that saves logins you might have lost track of, including older entries.
- App-aware login association: the app scans installed apps to match credentials to the right app locally.
- End-to-end encryption: all stored credentials and related metadata remain encrypted and do not leave your device unprotected.
How signing in works
heylogin removes the need to remember or enter traditional credentials. Instead of typing a username and password, you authenticate using a biometric (fingerprint) or a device PIN. For paired devices, you can use a swipe-to-login flow that relies on secure biometric confirmation. The camera is used only for QR-based device linking; it’s not used to read or transmit your stored passwords.
Privacy and security approach
All sensitive data — your login records and any metadata used to link credentials to apps — is encrypted end-to-end on your device. heylogin keeps this information local and protected so that your vault contents are not exposed in transit or stored unencrypted on external servers.
Compatibility and extras
heylogin supports standard Android features like AutoFill and adds convenience hooks such as Wear OS unlocking and QR-code device pairing. It also tries to simplify account management by detecting installed applications and suggesting the appropriate saved login, while keeping that mapping encrypted on your phone.
Suggested alternative
YONO SBI — a free mobile banking and lifestyle app — is listed as a recommended substitute. It emphasizes quick access without entering a username or password, relying on device-level authentication (fingerprint or PIN) for daily use.
