Create Your Account
Sign up with an email and password to sync your brand kit and save presets — and learn why you don't need an account just to make and export graphics.
#Overview
An account lets HeyMotion remember you. When you're signed in, your brand kit syncs to the cloud and you can save presets — named snapshots of a template and its content that appear in your sidebar for one-click reuse. Sign-up is a quick email-and-password step inside the studio.
#When to Use It
Create an account when you want your brand to follow you between devices, or when you're building graphics you'll want to reload later. If you're just trying the tool for the first time, you can skip this entirely — see the note below.
You do not need an account to make or export graphics. The full library, all canvas sizes, and unlimited in-browser MP4 export all work signed out. An account only adds cloud-synced brand settings and saved presets.
#Before You Begin
You'll need a working email address you can check, and a password of at least 6 characters. That's the only requirement. Sign-up happens right inside the studio — there's no separate registration site to visit.
#Step-by-Step Instructions
#1. Open the studio
Go to https://heymotion.io/app.
#2. Open the Account panel
In the edit panel on the right, click the 👤 Account toggle to expand the account controls.
#3. Enter your email and password
Type the email address you want to use and choose a password of six or more characters.
#4. Sign up
Choose the sign-up option and submit. HeyMotion creates your account and sends a confirmation email.
#5. Confirm your email
Email confirmation is required. New accounts must be confirmed before you can sign in. Open the email from HeyMotion and click the confirmation link. Until you do, sign-in won't work.
#6. Sign in
Once confirmed, return to the 👤 Account panel and sign in with the same email and password. Your brand kit will now sync to the cloud, and the Save as preset option becomes available.
#What an account gives you
| You get | What it means |
|---|---|
| Cloud-synced brand kit | Your colors, fonts, logo, and background are stored to your account and load on any device you sign in from. |
| Saved presets | Name a template + its content as a preset; it appears under My presets in the sidebar. Click to load, or use the small x to delete. |
| Same login across System Prompt AI | Your HeyMotion account is the same account used across System Prompt AI sign-in. |
Password reset, changing your email, social login, and account deletion are planned but not in the app yet. See Sign In and Sign Out for the current gaps and how to get help in the meantime.
#Best Practices
Use an email you check regularly, since confirmation is required before your first sign-in. Set your brand kit right after you confirm — it's the highest-value thing an account preserves, and everything you build afterward inherits it.
#Common Mistakes
The two most common early snags are a password shorter than six characters (it will be rejected) and trying to sign in before clicking the confirmation link (it won't work until the email is confirmed).
#Troubleshooting
The confirmation email didn't arrive. First, check your spam or junk folder — automated confirmation mail often lands there. Wait a few minutes, since delivery isn't always instant, and confirm you typed your email address correctly. If it still hasn't shown up, see Browser Requirements to rule out a browser or connectivity issue, then reach out at support@heymotion.io.
