Accounts and sign-in

One account on your PC, your phone and this website.

Use the same account on BambooKit Desktop, BambooKit for Android and this website.

Sign-in methods

An email/password account and a Google account are two separate accounts, even with the same email address. Pick one method and use it everywhere: pairing and session lists only work within one account. If you want to use the phone, use an email account, because the Android app does not offer Google sign-in yet.

Create an account

Choose Create account, enter your email and a password (and a name in Desktop). You receive a confirmation email; open the link, then sign in.

Forgot your password?

Choose Forgot password? in any app or use Reset password here. The email link opens this website, where you choose a new password. Use it on all your devices. Google accounts have no BambooKit password.

Google sign-in on the PC

Desktop opens a small sign-in page at http://localhost:54329 in your browser. Finish the Google sign-in there and return to the app. If nothing happens, check that no other program uses port 54329.

Where your sign-in is stored

AppStorage
DesktopEncrypted by Windows for your user (DPAPI)
AndroidEncrypted with the Android Keystore
WebThe browser's session for this site

BambooKit never sees your password: sign-ins are handled by Supabase (email) and Google/Firebase (Google), and BambooKit Cloud only checks the signed tokens.

Sign out

  • Desktop: BambooKit chip → Sign out of BambooKit.
  • Android: Profile → Sign out.

Signing out does not remove the device from your account; revoke it for that.

Profile photo

On this site open Account → Upload photo, or on the phone Profile → Change photo. JPEG, PNG or WebP up to 2 MB. Remove photo goes back to your Google picture (if any). Photos are stored in private cloud storage and shown through links that expire after an hour.

Email verification

The Account page shows whether your email is verified and can Send verification email again.

Delete your account

On this site: Account → Delete account. On the phone: Profile → Delete account…. Type DELETE MY ACCOUNT to confirm.
