How signing in works
TailMe uses a sign-in link and a one-time code sent to your email instead of a password. Here is how to use them and what to do if the email does not arrive.
TailMe doesn't use passwords. Each time you sign in, we email you a link and a code.
Signing in
- Go to Log in and enter your email.
- Choose Continue with email.
- Either tap the link in the email, or type the Code from the email and choose Continue.
The code and link work for one hour, on any device. That means you can request the email on your laptop and type the code there, even if you read the email on your phone.
Didn't get the email?
- Check your spam, junk or promotions folder.
- Make sure the address is right. If not, choose Use a different email.
- Wait for the countdown, then choose Resend email.
If you see "Too many sign-in emails", wait a little and try again.
"That link has expired or was already used"
Links work once and expire after an hour. Request a new email and use the newest one. If a link says it needs to be opened in the same browser, type the 6-digit code instead.
Changing your sign-in email
Go to Settings → Account → Sign-in email and choose Change email. We'll send a confirmation link to the new address, and nothing changes until you click it. See account settings.
