Accounts and sign-in

Do I need an account?#

No. Painting, building, saving, secret links, connecting an agent and exporting all work without an account. Your work belongs to this browser.

An account is useful when you want to

• publish skins or builds to the public gallery, and
• keep your builds and skins on every device and safe from cleared browser data.

Signing in#

Choose Sign in in the header:

• Continue with Google, or
• enter your e-mail address and choose Send code. You receive a six-digit code that is valid for 10 minutes. Enter it to sign in.

There are no passwords. Your first sign-in creates the account. Use a permanent e-mail address; throwaway addresses are refused.

What happens to your work#

• The first sign-in in a browser turns everything this browser made into your account's work.
• Signing in on another browser moves that browser's builds and skin drafts into your account too, so they come together.
• Signing out gives this browser a fresh, empty anonymous identity. Your work stays in the account; sign in again to get it back.

Limits against abuse#

Code e-mails are limited per address and per network, a code allows five attempts, and the check "Please confirm you are human" may appear before a code is sent. If you see Too many codes requested, wait a while and try again.
