Signing in to Owlect

Owlect has no password of its own. You sign in with an account you already have: Google or Discord.

Step by step:

  • 1Open Owlect in your browser (owlect.app)
  • 2Tap "Continue with Google" or "Continue with Discord"
  • 3Choose your account and allow access
  • 4That's it! You are now logged in
  • The same button creates your account the first time and signs you in after that.

    Which one should I pick?

    Both work the same way, with the same plans and features. Pick the account you use most.

    If you opened Owlect from a link inside Instagram, TikTok or another app, Google sign-in often does not work in that app's built-in browser. Use Discord there, or open the page in your regular browser.

    Using the desktop app? It signs in through your browser: see Desktop App for Mac, Windows and Linux.

    Can I use both?

    Yes. If your Google and Discord accounts use the same email address, they open the same Owlect account and you can sign in with either one. You can see which ones are connected in Settings > Account.

    If the two email addresses are different, you get two separate Owlect accounts. They cannot be merged, so stick to one.

    Discord says my email is not verified

    Owlect only accepts Discord accounts with a verified email address. This stops anyone from getting into your Owlect account by putting your email address on a Discord account they made.

    To fix it, open Discord, go to User Settings > My Account, and verify your email address (Discord sends you a link). Then try again, or use Google instead.

    Is it safe?

    Owlect never sees or stores your Google or Discord password. We only receive your name, email address and profile picture. See the Privacy Policy for details.

    What happens to my data?

    Your collections and items are saved securely in the cloud. You can access them from any device - just sign in with the same account.
