I can't sign in — what should I try?
Use the Forgot password link on the sign-in page. Happyly sends a reset email — open it on the same device for a one-tap link back. If the email doesn't arrive within a minute, check your spam folder.
Happyly uses email-based sign-in. Most sign-in problems are one of three things: typo in the email, missed reset email, or session quirk after switching devices.
I forgot my password.
Tap Forgot password on the sign-in page. Enter the email you signed up with. Happyly sends a reset email within a minute. Open the email on the same device you want to sign in on (browser or phone) and tap the link — it logs you in and routes you to a page where you can set a new password.
The reset email never arrived.
- Check your spam / promotions folder — the sender is `noreply@happyly.app` (or a similar address from the email service we use).
- Confirm the email you typed matches the one you signed up with — a typo means the reset goes to a different address.
- Wait two more minutes — sometimes mail providers delay delivery.
- If it still hasn't arrived, request another reset. The new link replaces the old one.
I get "invalid email or password".
Usually a typo. Check for caps lock, a stray space at the end of the email, or autocorrect adding a period after `.com`. If you're sure the credentials are right but it still fails, use Forgot password to reset.
I was signed in, now I'm not.
Sessions sometimes expire — especially after long gaps without using the app, or after switching devices. Sign in again. Your data is safe; nothing is lost between sessions.
The sign-in link Happyly emailed me didn't work.
If Happyly invited you via a sign-in link (no password needed), that link expires in 24 hours and only works once. If it doesn't work, use Forgot password to start fresh — Happyly will email a new one.
I'm a guest invited by someone else.
Guests sign in with their own email — never the host's. Make sure you're using the email the host added you under in My Account → Guests. If you're not sure which email, ask the host to check.
