# Signing In to TempoWeave Mobile

TempoWeave Mobile is a free download and works without an account. Signing in does two things: it unlocks the features your TempoWeave Studio license includes (saving, exporting, snapshots, cloud upload), and it connects the app to your TempoWeave Cloud library, the same one desktop uses. One account covers every device you own.

### Before you start

**Use the email address that is already linked to your TempoWeave Studio account.** The sign-in matches that address to your license; a different address, even one you own, signs you into an empty free account instead.

* That address is the one your TempoWeave Studio license, receipts, and renewal notices are sent to. If you have ever changed it with LoftyFiber support, use the current one. One license covers desktop and mobile at no extra charge.
* **If you do not have a license yet**, buy TempoWeave Studio at [tempoweave.com](https://tempoweave.com) and sign in here with the email you buy it under. One license unlocks every device you have, desktop and mobile, at any tier. On iOS you may also notice an in-app purchase; it unlocks Lite on mobile only, never desktop, so the tempoweave.com license is the better buy. See *Which license should I buy?* below.
* You can also sign in with any email without a license. That gives you a free TempoWeave Cloud account for opening drafts other weavers share with you. It does not unlock saving or exporting.
* You need to be able to read email on this device, or on another one close by, because the sign-in sends a code.

### Step by step

1. Tap **☰** (the menu button in the top bar), then **Sign In…** under ACCOUNT.
2. Type your email address and tap **Send Code**.
3. Open your email. A message from LoftyFiber contains a **6-digit verification code**. If it is not in your inbox within a minute or two, check the Junk or Spam folder, and check Promotions if you use Gmail.
4. Back in TempoWeave, type the 6 digits and tap **Verify**.
5. If your account has more than one subscription, a list appears. Choose the one to use on this device and tap **Use Selected**. Most people never see this step.
6. The panel now shows your email and your tier, for example TempoWeave Studio Pro. Tap **Close**. You are signed in, and you stay signed in until you sign out.

That is all. The features for your tier unlock immediately, and **☰ → Browse Drafts…** now shows your cloud library alongside the drafts on the device.

### Signing out, and signing in on another device

* **☰ → Sign In…** shows the account you are signed in as. Tap **Sign Out** to leave it.
* Sign in on as many phones, tablets, and computers as you like with the same email. Each one unlocks to your tier.
* Signing out does not remove drafts from the device or from your cloud library.

### If the code does not arrive

* Wait a couple of minutes and look in Junk or Spam. Mail from a new sender lands there more often than you would think.
* Check that the address you typed is the one on your subscription. A code sent to a different address unlocks a free account, not your license.
* Tap **Send Code** again to get a fresh code, then use the newest one.
* **Desktop customers with a Subscription ID** can skip email entirely: on the sign-in panel, tap the option to enter your **Subscription ID**, paste it, and tap **Activate**. The Subscription ID is the long string of letters and numbers from your purchase receipt or from LoftyFiber support. It is not your order number, and App Store customers do not have one.
* Still stuck? Email <support@loftyfiber.com> with the address you signed up with, and we will sort it out.

### Which license should I buy?

Buy TempoWeave Studio at [tempoweave.com](https://tempoweave.com). That is one account for everything you weave on:

|                                       | TempoWeave Studio license from tempoweave.com | Apple in-app purchase |
| ------------------------------------- | --------------------------------------------- | --------------------- |
| Unlocks desktop (Windows, Mac, Linux) | Yes                                           | No                    |
| Unlocks iPad, iPhone, Android         | Yes                                           | Mobile only           |
| Tiers available                       | Lite, Core, Pro                               | Lite only             |
| Upgrade later                         | Yes                                           | No                    |
| Managed by                            | LoftyFiber support, directly                  | Apple                 |

If you already own TempoWeave Studio, you own mobile too. Sign in with the email on your account and everything your tier includes unlocks on the phone or tablet at no extra charge.

### Common questions

**I signed in but Save is still grayed out.** The tier shown on the sign-in panel tells you what the app thinks you have. If it says Demo or shows the wrong tier, sign out and sign in again with the email on your subscription. Details of what each tier unlocks are in Your Account & What Unlocks.

**Does signing in cost anything?** No. Your existing TempoWeave Studio license covers mobile at no extra charge. Without a license, signing in still gives you a free cloud account for opening shared drafts.

**Can two people share one account?** The license is per person. Each weaver should sign in with their own email.
