# Getting started (/en/consumers/getting-started)



Getting started on Thril takes a couple of minutes. You can use Thril right in your browser or download the mobile app, then sign in with just your email address.

***

## 1. Choose how you want to use Thril [#1-choose-how-you-want-to-use-thril]

You can use Thril on whichever device suits you. Your account, bookings, and activities stay in sync across all of them.

### On the web [#on-the-web]

Open [app.thril.fi](https://app.thril.fi) in any modern browser, no download required. The web app is great for booking from a laptop or desktop.

### On your phone (recommended) [#on-your-phone-recommended]

The mobile app gives you the full experience, including notifications about your bookings and activities.

* **iOS:** [Download on the App Store](https://apps.apple.com/app/id6483861446)
* **Android:** [Get it on Google Play](https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=fi.thril)

<Callout>
  Search for **“Thril: Discover sports nearby”** if you'd rather find it from
  within the App Store or Google Play.

## 2. Create your account and sign in [#2-create-your-account-and-sign-in]

Thril uses **passwordless sign-in**, so there's no password to remember.

1. Open the app or web app and choose **Sign up or log in**.
2. Enter your **email address**.
3. We'll email you a secure **magic link**. Open the email and tap the link to sign in.
4. That's it. If this is your first time, you'll be guided through a short setup (your name, a few favourite sports, and an optional profile photo).

<Callout>
  Can't open the email on the same device? No problem, the email also contains a
  **6-digit code** you can type into Thril to sign in manually.
</Callout>

### Sign in with Apple or Google [#sign-in-with-apple-or-google]

On the **mobile app**, you can also tap **Continue with Apple** or **Continue with Google** instead of using an email link. Follow the prompts to finish. It's the fastest option if you're already signed in to those accounts on your phone.

## 3. Trouble signing in? [#3-trouble-signing-in]

If your magic link doesn't arrive or doesn't work, try these steps:

* **Check your spam or junk folder:** the email comes from Thril and can occasionally be filtered.
* **Make sure the email address is correct:** sign in with the same address every time so your account and bookings stay together.
* **Enter the code manually:** on the sign-in screen, choose **Having trouble logging in?** and then **Enter code manually** to type the 6-digit code from the email.
* **Resend the link:** choose **Resend email link** to get a fresh magic link, then use the newest email (older links expire).
* **Open the link on the same device** when you can, so you're signed in right where you want to use Thril.
