Signing in to your account
KingsCutter has no passwords: you sign in with Google or with a 6-digit code sent to your email. You don't need an account to design; it's required to download, to save a design and to open My Workshop.
What the site does and what's up to you
- Opens the sign-in window on top of the page you're on, without taking you away from your design
- Uses the same path to sign in and to create the account: if it's your first time, the account is created on its own
- Gives you 3 free credits when you create the account
- Opens Google in a separate window, so your page stays where it is
- In the main window, checks the code as soon as you fill in the 6 boxes
- →Ticking the terms box before choosing how to sign in
- →Using your regular email: temporary emails can't open an account
- →Looking for the code in your inbox or your spam folder
- →Letting the browser open the Google window
An account with no password
Your account is your email. Every time you sign in, the site sends you a new code or lets you in with that email's Google account. There's no password to remember or change.
You can design and view your piece in 3D without signing in. The account is needed when something has to be saved under your name: when you download the file, when you click “Save to My designs” and when you open My Workshop.
There are two sign-in windows. The main one opens with “Sign in”, at the top of the site's pages. The download one appears when you click “Download my design →” without being signed in: “Before you download, create your free account”.
Click “Sign in”
It's at the top, in the site's bar and in the designer's bar. The window opens on top of what you were doing, titled “Create your free account”: it's the same one for signing in and for creating the account.
If you open the /login page, you see the same window; once you're in, it takes you to My Workshop.
Accept the terms
Tick the box “I accept the terms of use, acknowledge the privacy policy and confirm I am of legal age.” Without the box, neither way of signing in goes ahead and you see “Please tick the box to accept the terms and the privacy policy first.”
Sign in with Google
Click “Continue with Google”. A separate window opens for you to choose your account; your page stays where it was.
If the browser blocks the window, the whole tab goes to Google and, when you're done, comes back to the page you were on.
Or sign in with your email
Click “Continue with your email”. In “Your email” type your address and click “Send code →”. The screen says “We send you a code to sign in. No passwords.”
With “← Other options” you go back to choosing Google.
Type the code
In “Check your email” there are 6 boxes. Type the numbers from the email: when you fill in the sixth, the code is checked on its own. You can also click “Sign in”.
If you don't see it, check your spam folder. With “← Change email” you fix the address.
Done
You see “Account created!” and “Start designing →”. Click the button, or close the window: you're in. To leave, use “Sign out” in the My Workshop menu.
