The Battlegrounds Mobile India had recently announced that transfer of data from PUBG Mobile for Indian players will be discontinued after December 31. The players will have to import their PUBG Mobile data before December 31. Since it was launched the BGMI had allowed the users to import their data via Twitter and Facebook logins, if the player used the same social media accounts.
The developers had last month disabled the option to allow the players to login via Facebook through an embedded browser. The users now need to have the Facebook app installed in order to login to Battlegrounds Mobile India through Facebook.
