How to create a Mappi account and sign in

Article · 1 min readUpdated

In the editor, click Sign in at the top right. Continue with Google, Apple or Facebook, or use your email and password. New here? Click Create an account. Your map and every change stay in place while you sign in.

Step by step

  1. Click Sign in

    In the editor, click Sign in in the top-right corner. A Sign in to Mappi window opens over your map.

    Sign in to Mappi dialog with Continue with Google, Apple and Facebook buttons and email and password fields
  2. Pick how to sign in

    Click Continue with Google, Continue with Apple or Continue with Facebook, or enter your email and password and click Sign in.

  3. Or create an account

    Click Create an account, enter your email and a password twice, and click Create account. Open the confirmation link we email you, then come back to the tab: you’re signed in right there.

    Create your Mappi account dialog with sign up buttons for Google, Apple and Facebook and email, password and confirm password fields

Do I need an account?

No. You can make and export map animations without signing in. You need an account to upgrade to Pro and to save Pro items like custom themes and uploaded icons. Saved maps live in your browser either way; see where saved maps are stored.

Forgot your password?

  1. In the Sign in to Mappi window, click Forgot password?.
  2. Enter your email and click Send reset link.
  3. Open the link in the email, choose a new password and save it. Check your spam folder if the email doesn’t arrive within a minute.

Signed up with Google, Apple or Facebook? Sign in with that button instead; there’s no separate Mappi password.

Sign out

Click your avatar and choose Sign out. In the editor, this takes you to the sign-in page and clears the map you’re working on, so save it first. On a phone, where there’s no saved maps menu, sign out only once you’re done with the map. Your saved maps stay in the browser.
