Creating an account

When you first open Scenario, you’ll be viewing anonymously, with no account. To access your own workspace and set up a subscription to use more features, you’ll need to create an account.

  1. Click the “Create Account” button in the top toolbar

  2. Choose to create with Google, Apple, or an email address

  3. If you choose Google or Apple, verify that account, and you’ll be logged in immediately

  4. If you choose email, enter your information and click Create account

    • Name and email are mandatory (phone number is optional)

    • If you want to use a password, enter it here

    • We’ll send you a verification email (even if you enter a password). Click the link in the email you receive to log in with your new account!

Log into your account

On a new device or your regular one, login is the same:

  1. Click the “Log In” button

  2. Choose the method you've used before (Google, Apple, email with/without password)

    • To log in with an email login link, enter your email address only

    • To log in with an email and password, enter both

    • To reset your password, enter something in the password field and click the Reset Password button; we’ll send you an email with a link to reset it

Connecting Google/Apple accounts

You can add one of each account, for Google and Apple.

Currently these are only used for login, but in the future they’ll be used for calendar sync, and more.

  1. Open your account view

  2. Switch to the Connect tab

  3. To connect a new account, click the button and verify in the new tab/window

  4. To disconnect an account, click the X and confirm
