FAQ

I mistyped my email when I set up the account.: Just toggle the Things Cloud switch off, and then on again. Now create a new account with the correct email address.
The verification code didn’t arrive.: If the email hasn’t arrived in your Mail’s inbox/spam/junk/trash folders within a couple of minutes, log into the web interface of your email provider. Some email apps don’t download junk/trash emails but you could find it online. If you still don’t see it, contact our support team from the email address you used to sign up.
I want to create a new account.: If Things Cloud is already on, but you need to create a new account, just toggle the Things Cloud switch off and on again. All to-dos that are present in Things on your device will be uploaded to the new account.
Is my data safe with you?: Yes. All data exchanged between the client (Things on the device) and the server (Things Cloud) is encrypted. The data is also encrypted when it is stored on the servers; no data is stored in clear text. Learn more.
