Check out our troubleshooting login issues article to get help.
Sign up with your Google account
- Navigate to web.descript.com.
- Click the Continue with Google button.
- Select a Google account to connect to Descript. If you aren't signed in, enter the email and password for the Google account you want to use.
Moving forward, you can sign in to Descript by clicking Continue with Google.
Sign up with your email address
- Navigate to web.descript.com.
- Enter your email address, then select Continue with email.
- Descript will send you a one-time passcode (OTP). Open a new browser tab to retrieve your passcodeâclosing the tab where you were signing in will invalidate the OTP.
- If you sign out later, youâll repeat this process to sign back in.
Prefer to use a password?
Click Use a password instead, then select Sign up or reset password. After you verify your email with the one-time passcode, youâll be able to set a password.
Your password must be at least 9 characters long and strong enough to pass the security check.
You donât need special characters or uppercase letters, but the password canât be too common (for example, âpassword123â). Descript uses a strength checker to help you choose something secure.
Download the Descript desktop app
After creating your account, you can continue working in your browser at web.descript.com or download the desktop application.
