Phound can have multiple sign-in methods connected to the same account. You can use Google, Apple, or your regular phone number (PSTN) to sign in when that method is connected.
These are authentication methods. Connecting or disconnecting one does not edit the email field already stored on the Phound account.
Available Sign-In Methods
| Method | How it appears in Phound |
|---|---|
| Login with Google account | |
| Apple | Login with Apple ID |
| Phone number | Sign in with the connected regular phone number |
Google, Apple, and a phone number can all be connected at the same time. This gives you up to three ways to access the same Phound account.
Connect Google or Apple
- Open your Account or profile area in Phound.
- Select Integrations.
- Select Add Integration.
- Choose Google or Apple.
- Complete the sign-in steps shown by that provider.
- Return to Phound and confirm that the new method appears as connected.
On Phound Desktop, select the profile icon near the bottom of the left sidebar to open Account. The same account and sign-in methods are available when you use Phound on mobile.
Disconnect or Change a Sign-In Method
Google and Apple integrations can be disconnected. If you want to use a different Google or Apple account, disconnect the existing integration and connect the account you want to use.
Before disconnecting a method, confirm that another sign-in method is connected and working. This helps prevent losing access to the account.
Disconnecting Google or Apple does not change the stored account email.
Can I Change the Account Email?
The email field is set when an account is originally created through Google or Apple single sign-on. Phound currently does not provide a control for editing that stored field.
If the original Google or Apple integration is disconnected later, the stored email remains unchanged. It is separate from the sign-in methods currently connected to the account and is not normally used to choose how you sign in.
If someone asks to change their login email, first identify what they need:
- To sign in with a different Google or Apple account, change the connected integration.
- To add another way to access the account, connect Google, Apple, or a phone number.
- To edit the stored account email field itself, that option is not currently available in the app.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can I use more than one sign-in method?
Yes. Google, Apple, and a regular phone number can be connected to the same account.
Does disconnecting Google or Apple remove the email from my account?
No. The email stored during the original Google or Apple sign-up remains on the account.
