Newly, at app.newly.app and in Newly for Mac, uses one account for both. Sign in with the same email address in each, and you see the same projects.

Ways to sign in

You can sign in with:
  • Email. Enter your email address and press Continue with email. Newly emails you a 6-digit code. Enter it and press Verify code.
  • Google. Press Continue with Google.
  • GitHub. Press Continue with GitHub.
There are no passwords, so there’s nothing to reset. If a code doesn’t arrive, check your spam folder or press Resend code. To use a different address, press Use another email. You can’t sign in to Newly with Apple.
Use the same email address each time, on the web app and in the Mac app. A different email address is a different account, with its own projects and credits.

Sign up for the first time

Signing up and signing in use the same form. The first time you sign in with a new email address, Newly creates your account.
  1. Go to app.newly.app, or open Newly for Mac.
  2. Press Start building, or Sign in if you already have a Newly account.
  3. Sign in with an email code, Google or GitHub.
  4. Answer three short questions and read the short tour.
  5. In the Mac app, you may also see a screen that offers to set up Xcode. To skip it for now, press Set this up later.
Then continue with Build your first app. New accounts start with no credits, so you need a plan, a gift plan or credits from Newly before your first prompt. See How credits work.

Signing up at newly.app instead

You can also start from newly.app. Log in and Sign up there take you to app.newly.app, so you end up in the same Newly account either way. Open the gift link in your browser. The sign-in screen shows “Sign in to claim one free month of Agent, worth $25.” Sign in, then press Activate free month on the next screen. You can claim a gift only if your account doesn’t already have an active plan. Gift links open in the web app. After you claim one, the credits are on your account in the Mac app too. See Plans and top-ups.

Your account details

In the web app, open the account menu at the bottom of the sidebar and choose Account. There you can:
  • Change your Display name.
  • See the email you’re signed in with, and whether you signed in with email, Google or GitHub.
You can’t change your email or sign-in method there. The Account dialog is only in the web app. In the Mac app, the same menu has Billing and Sign out. For account deletion, see Delete a chat, project or account.

Sign out

Open the account menu at the bottom of the sidebar and choose Sign out. In the web app, signing out takes you back to newly.app.

Troubleshooting

Make sure you signed in with the same email address as before. A different email address is a different account.
If you still can’t sign in, see Getting help.
