From precious photos to important emails and documents, your Google Account holds a wealth of valuable information. We want to ensure that this information is always kept private and secure, while also being easily accessible when you need it. That's why we recommend setting up multiple sign-in methods. Today, we're adding a new sign-in method: selfie video verification.
Selfie video verification is a new way to access your account, providing more options when your account is locked or you don't have access to your usual phone or computer.
Setting it up is simple. Just look at your device camera and follow the prompts to complete a few simple head movements, capturing your likeness from different angles.
If you encounter problems signing in later, simply record your face again to regain access to your account. Selfie video verification compares the newly recorded video with the one you previously set up to verify your identity and help you log back in.
Your selfie video is yours and under your control. It's recorded with your consent and securely stored, and you can delete it from your Google Account at any time. Unless you choose to share it for additional purposes, the video will only be used to support sign-in. Your selfie video remains encrypted even when stored, ensuring its safety when not in use.

Translator's Note: It appears that selfie verification may be subject to regional restrictions in Korea, as my account indicates that I am unable to use it.
