Your account

# Sign in with Google

You can sign in to QR4Events with your Google account instead of an email and password, on our website and in the QR4Events app for Android.

## Sign in or create an account

1. On the sign-in or sign-up page, select **Continue with Google**.
2. Choose your Google account.

If you're new to QR4Events, that's it: your account is made from your Google name and email address, the email counts as confirmed, and your free trial starts straight away.

In the Android app, the button opens your phone's own list of Google accounts.

The iPhone app doesn't have **Continue with Google**: sign in there with your email and password. If you made your account with Google and have no password yet, use **Forgot your password?** on the sign-in page to set one. You can still use Continue with Google on the website.

## An account you already have

If you already have a QR4Events account with the same email address as your Google account, **Continue with Google** signs you in to it and links the two. From then on you can sign in either way: Continue with Google, or your email and password.

## What Google shares with us

Only your name, your email address (and that Google has confirmed it) and an ID number for your Google account, so we know it's you next time. We never see your Google password, and we post nothing to your Google account.

## 2-factor authentication

If you've switched on 2-factor authentication, signing in with Google doesn't ask for the 6-digit code: your Google account's own security takes its place. Signing in with your email and password still asks for the code.

## Turn off Google sign-in

Go to **Settings** and select **Turn off Google sign-in**. You then sign in with your email and password only.

If you made your account with Google, set a password first: sign out, select **Forgot your password?** on the sign-in page and follow the link we email you. Otherwise you'll have no way to sign in.
