This survey reviews UX aspects of user authentication, covering memorability, effort, error tolerance, perceived security, and context of use across passwords, biometrics, and multi-factor methods. We synthesize empirical findings and highlight trade-offs between security and convenience. The paper outlines a research agenda for UX-centered authentication design and evaluation.
