Limit login to one browser on each device.

Question

I have configured aws cognito to handle the authentication for my react application and I want to limit the user to be able to login on only one browser on each device. It means that if the user logs in on chrome on his pc and then logs in on safari then his login on chrome should be revoked. Moreover if he has logged in on his phone as well it should not be affected by his login pc.

Answer

Hi, Cognito can tracking and remembering devices by using  user pools.  See https://aws.amazon.com/blogs/mobile/tracking-and-remembering-devices-using-amazon-cognito-your-user-pools/

Using this feature will allow you to limit to only 1 connection per device at any time.
