This was a huge request on our app as well, we did it, and about 10% of our users are email sign-up.

On the flip side, when/if you do decide to go with email sign-up, be prepared that users who once signed-in with their social media account will start signing in with their email address and expecting it to work, even though they never showed a password.

It seems to me users use the same social media service to sign into most services, so they don't get confused between facebook or google login buttons, but give them an email field, and they get confused as to how they have been signing in in the past.

Anyone else seen similar behavior? Or is it just us?
