Account Creation

New users can access the onboarding process by clicking Sign Up in the upper right corner of the main Autheo site.

This will bring you to the initial Sign Up window, where you can choose one of three registration options:

1. Manual Sign Up: Create an account manually through the Autheo form.

2. Sign Up with Google: Sign up for Autheo by associating your Google account.

3. Sign Up with Wallet: Create a new account based on an existing wallet.

When singing up manually, you will need to enter your Full Name, your desired Username, an Email address where Autheo can send account notifications and a strong Password.

After entering this information, click Sign Up to bring up the Verification Code window. You should receive your verification code in the email address used for registration. If you cannot find the email and have checked your email's Spam folder, there is an option to Resend the code.

Verifying your account will bring you to the next screen, where we will begin building your home feed. After filling in how you Identify, you will be brought to the Select Niche and Topics window.

Here, you can choose a Niche you are interested in. The dropdown menu allows you to choose a specific niche, or show all available topics. You may choose multiple topics within a single niche. If you want to add an additional niche, click the plus sign to the right of your existing niche to bring up another Select Niche instance. Once you are satisfied with your selections, click Next.

The Create Community window gives you the opportunity to create your own community on Autheo. You can find more information on creating a community here. If you do not want to create a community, click Skip to move to the next window.

The final page allows you to link various social media accounts to your Autheo account. Autheo natively supports linking Facebook, Instagram, Twitter/X and Youtube. You can divide these socials by sector if you are involved in more than one niche. Sectors can be added by clicking the green plus sign to the right of your existing Select Sector instance.

After inputting your social media links, click Next to complete account creation.

Clicking on Sign Up with Google will open a window where you can choose to Create a new wallet or Import an existing wallet. Clicking Create a new wallet will open a window where you can choose to either Use a Recovery Phrase or Sign-up with Google.

Signing up with Google will bring you to the Set Up Your Wallet window. You will need to choose a Wallet Name and a strong Password. Make sure that you use a name that makes sense to you for easy identification. After entering this information and clicking Sign Up, you will be brought to a window that displays your Private Key. You will need your private key to recover your account if you lose access.

After storing your private key, click Got it to move to the Select Chains window. Here, you can choose which blockchains you want to associate you wallet with initially. You can add or remove chains in the future using the Manage Chain Visibility option in the sidebar. Clicking Save will complete the account creation process.

Choosing Sign up with Wallet will give you the option to either Create a new wallet or Import an existing wallet.

If you choose Create a new wallet, you will be brought to a new window where you can choose to either Create a new recovery phrase or Import an existing recovery phrase.

• Choosing Create a new recovery phrase will prompt you to generate your own 12-word recovery phrase and an associated wallet name. After entering this information, you will be prompted to also create a strong password for accessing the wallet through Autheo. Finally, you can Select the Chains you will be using the wallet with and then Save to finish creating your account.
• Choosing Import an existing recovery phrase allows you to use the recovery phrase of an existing wallet to create an Autheo wallet. You will be prompted to name the wallet and assign a strong password before selecting associated blockchains for the wallet.

    Clicking Save will complete account creation.

Choosing Import an existing wallet will bring you to the Network window, where you can choose the blockchain your wallet is associated with. You can import your existing wallet with a Recovery Phrase or a Private Key.

Entering your recovery phrase or private key, in the appropriate tab, will give you the option to add a Name to the wallet. After clicking Import your account will be created using the existing wallet.
