If you want Google login + email/password in the same app, the simplest and most common choice is:
Use Firebase Authentication
It supports:
- Google Sign-In
- Email/password sign-up and login
- Account linking between providers
- Password reset, email verification, etc.
Why Firebase Auth?
- Very quick to set up
- Handles OAuth flows for Google
- Built-in user management
- Works well for web, Android, iOS, and Flutter
Typical setup
You’d usually enable both providers in Firebase:
- Email/Password
Then users can:
- Sign up with email/password
- Sign in with Google
- Optionally link both to the same account
If you want alternatives
- Auth0 — more enterprise-focused, very flexible
- Supabase Auth — good if you want an open-source/Postgres-backed stack
- Clerk — polished developer experience, especially for modern web apps
Recommendation
- Small/medium app: Firebase Auth
- Need more control or enterprise features: Auth0
- Want open source / Postgres stack: Supabase Auth
