# Account and Login

Welcome to MinistryBoard! This section covers everything you need to get into your account and get started.

<details>

<summary>How do I create an account?</summary>

Go to the MinistryBoard Sign In / Create Church page and click the **Create Church** tab. Enter your name, church name, email, and password, then check the box to accept the Terms of Service and Privacy Policy. Once your account is created, you'll be walked through a short onboarding tour before entering your account.

</details>

<details>

<summary>I was invited but the link isn't working.</summary>

Invite links expire after **7 days**. If your link has expired, contact your church's Super Admin and ask them to resend the invite from the People directory. They'll generate a fresh 7-day link for you.

</details>

<details>

<summary>Can I share my login with someone else?</summary>

No. MinistryBoard requires every person to have their own named login. Shared accounts are not supported — they create inaccurate data and are a security risk. If someone on your team needs access, your Super Admin or Admin can send them their own invite.

</details>

<details>

<summary>I forgot my password. How do I reset it?</summary>

Use the **Forgot Password** link on the login screen. A reset link will be sent to your email address. Check your spam folder if you don't see it within a few minutes.

</details>

<details>

<summary>Do I need to download an app?</summary>

No. MinistryBoard does not have an app. It runs directly in your mobile or desktop browser — nothing to download or install. For the easiest access, we recommend saving it to your home screen. See the question below for step-by-step instructions.

<summary>I skipped the onboarding tour — how do I get back to it?</summary>

The onboarding tour runs once when you first create your account and cannot be repeated. If you need help navigating the platform, visit our knowledge base using the link in the app footer — we have guides for every part of MinistryBoard.
