Should your username be your email address?
Don't make your e-mail address your user ID
Using your e-mail address to sign into accounts has its benefits. Your ID is unique and easy to remember, and it makes it simple for a service to contact with you when, say, you forget your password. But in some cases, the risks of doing so could outweigh the benefits.
Should I use email or username for login?
Emails Are Easier to Remember
It's easier for users to remember their email than username. This is because users check their email is regularly and type it often. It's a mistake for sites to not allow users to log in with their email. Users need to do a lot of work if they forget their username.
What is the use of remember me in login form?
Use the “remember me” option to reduce how often you have to sign in with two-factor authentication (2FA) on the same web browser. It's safe to use on trusted computers, and lasts for 30 days.
Why use email as username?
Email addresses are useful as users should already remember then and they don't have to think about anything. This is useful if you don't have a "username" on your app. Example: Paypal or Dropbox, where no user name is needed to use these apps and the email is the best way to connect with other people.
