Choosing well
Check Android access
Android is represented among the platforms in this category. Confirm whether the product you are considering has an Android app, web interface or API that fits your phone workflow.
Also check iOS availability when your team uses more than one mobile platform.
Compare protocol support
Check support for OpenID Connect and SAML when choosing an identity service. Token introspection can matter when applications need to examine token status.
For service-to-service workloads, compare machine-to-machine authentication support.
Choose a deployment model

Self-hosting can be relevant when you need to manage the deployment yourself; review the product's stated platform support before deciding.
