Sign in with email, Google or Apple

flatnumber gives you three ways to sign in. They all lead to the same account, with the same communities, as long as you use the same email address.

The three ways to sign in

• Email and password — type your email and password and tap Log in. Works on Android, iPhone and the web.
• Continue with Google — uses your Google account. Available on Android, iPhone and the web.
• Continue with Apple — uses your Apple Account. Available on iPhone and on the web (app.flatnumber.com), but not on Android.

See your sign-in methods

1. Open Profile.
2. Find Sign-in methods. It lists each way you can log in (Password, Google or Apple) and the email address each one uses.

If a method shows Different email, it logs you in with an address that is not your account email — for example, after you changed your email. It still works.

Add Google or Apple to your account

There is no button for this. Just sign in once with Continue with Google or Continue with Apple using the same email address as your flatnumber account: you land in your usual account and the new method appears in Sign-in methods.

If you use Apple's Hide My Email, Apple gives flatnumber a different, private address. That creates a separate account instead — see I have two flatnumber accounts.

Remove a sign-in method

1. In Profile → Sign-in methods, tap Remove next to the method.
2. Confirm.

You can't remove your last method: it shows Your only sign-in method instead, so you can never lock yourself out.

Good to know

• Apple's private email. If you signed in with Apple and chose Hide My Email, your profile shows Private email (hidden by Apple). Emails from flatnumber still reach you: Apple forwards them to your real address.
• Changing your email. Your Google or Apple sign-in keeps using its own address; a notice in your profile tells you, and you can choose Keep it.
• Forgot your password? Tap Forgot password? on the login screen. You can also use it to set a password if you have only been signing in with Google.

Common questions

Can I use Google on one device and my password on another?
Yes. If both use the same email, they open the same account.

After signing in with Google, my password doesn't work. In some cases signing in with Google or Apple replaces a password that was never confirmed. Use Forgot password? to set a new one; you keep both ways to sign in.

I signed in and I don't see my community. You are probably in a second account. See I have two flatnumber accounts.
