How to have single signUp and login experience from users perspective
Describe the bug
In passwordless (sms) approach, user gets authenticated based on verification of an OTP that is issued to the user. To user it does not matter whether it is signUp or a login as both of them involve same process of OTP verification. How can this be achieved?
Steps To Reproduce
This is not a bug. Probably a common use case that is either missing, not documented or required as improvement. I chose it for "Create a report to help us improve" which is under Bug Report.
Expected behavior
OTP verification should be sufficient for user authentication without distinguishing, to user, that it is a signUp (first time) or login (subsequent times).

Auto signIn while signingUp a user is not currently supported. We will take this as a feature request and reply in this issue when we have more information.

Any update on when autosign will be supported on native Android/iOS? At the moment, it is not possible to implement passwordless auth flow with Amplify.
