Sign In & Your Account

You can start without an account

Twistly works the moment you open it — your free presentations are available right away, tied to the device you're using. Signing in becomes required only when you purchase a plan.

Sign-in options

  • Microsoft account

  • Google account

  • Email — enter your email address and confirm with a 6-digit code we send you. No password needed.

There are no passwords and no separate registration step: whichever option you choose, your Twistly account is created automatically the first time you sign in. Microsoft and Google sign-in opens in a popup window — if nothing appears, check that your browser or PowerPoint isn't blocking popups.

Your Twistly sign-in is independent of the account PowerPoint itself is signed into. If you have a paid plan, sign in inside the add-in with the exact email you used at purchase — even if PowerPoint is signed in with a different work or school account. It doesn't need to be a Microsoft account.

What signing in gives you

  • Your plan and remaining free presentations follow you across devices — sign in on another computer and everything is there.

  • Anything you used before signing in on this device (including your remaining free presentations) carries over to your account. You don't lose your free balance by signing in.

Good to know

  • Sessions renew automatically — you won't be asked to sign in again under normal use.

  • Email code not arriving? It can take a few minutes — check the Spam and Promotions folders. Each code works once; if it expired, request a new one.

  • Asked to sign in repeatedly? This usually happens when more than one Twistly account has been used on the same device. Sign in with the account that holds your plan.

  • Purchases require sign-in. If you start a purchase while signed out, Twistly asks you to sign in first and then continues to checkout automatically.

  • Signing out is available from the add-in's settings. It doesn't affect your presentations — they're your PowerPoint files.

  • New computer? There's nothing to transfer or restore — install the add-in and sign in with the same email. Your plan follows your account.

  • Changed email address? (left a job, switched accounts) Contact us and we can move your subscription to your new email.
