Manage your Flow account
Last updated: July 30, 2026
Available on: Mac, Windows, iOS, Android
Update your name, switch accounts, reset your password, or delete your account. This guide walks you through each task on every platform — most take under a minute.
Sign-in methods
Wispr Flow supports five ways to sign in. Your account is tied to the method you used when you created it.
Sign in with Apple
Sign in with Google
Sign in with Microsoft
Sign in with SSO — your organization's identity provider
Sign in with email — email and password account
How the sign-in screen behaves depends on your platform:
iOS: If you try email sign-in with an address linked to another provider, you'll see a "Welcome back" screen with the correct provider button.
Desktop (Mac/Windows): Provider routing happens on the Wispr Flow web sign-in page, not in the desktop app.
Android: The sign-in screen has separate provider buttons but does not auto-detect the original provider from an email.
Note: Password resets only apply to email/password accounts. If you signed up with Apple, Google, Microsoft, or SSO, manage your credentials through those providers directly.
How to manage your account
Mac
View and edit your account details
Click your account icon in the top-right of the Flow window and choose Manage account to open Settings on the Account page.
If you're already in Settings, select Account in the sidebar.
You'll see your first name, last name, email address, and profile picture.
Profile picture: Changes save immediately when you select a new image (max 5MB).
Name: Click Save to apply changes. Empty fields reset to their previous values. The Save button stays disabled until you make a change. Names that look like a password are rejected with "This looks like a password, not a name."
Email: Read-only and cannot be edited from the Account page.
Sign out
Go to Settings → Account.
Click Sign out.
Warning: Signing out removes your local Wispr Flow data from this device — including transcript history, dictionary, notes, Todos, notifications, and meetings/calendar cache. App preferences (language, shortcuts, polish instructions, and styles) are preserved. To reset everything to defaults, delete your account instead.
Switch to a different account
Sign out of your current account.
Click Sign in via browser on the sign-in screen.
Sign in with the other account in your browser.
Team data from the previous account is cleared automatically when you switch.
Note: If you don't complete browser sign-in promptly, the attempt will expire and you'll need to retry. If your organization uses an enterprise IP allowlist and you're on a blocked network, you'll see a "Your network isn't allowed" screen with Retry and Sign Out options. Retry restarts the sign-in flow; if you're still on a blocked network, you'll return to the same screen.
Change your password (email accounts only)
Sign out of the Wispr Flow app.
Click Sign in via browser, then Forgot password.
Enter your email address and click Send. You'll see a "Password reset email sent" confirmation when it's on its way.
Follow the instructions sent to your inbox. Weak passwords may be rejected.
Delete your account
Go to Settings → Account.
Click Delete account at the bottom of the page.
Confirm when the dialog warns: "This will delete all your data, memory, and dictionary, locally and on our servers."
Windows
View and edit your account details
Click your account icon in the top-left of the Flow window and choose Manage account to open Settings on the Account page.
If you're already in Settings, select Account in the sidebar.
You'll see your first name, last name, email address, and profile picture.
Profile picture: Changes save immediately when you select a new image (max 5MB).
Name: Click Save to apply changes. Empty fields reset to their previous values. The Save button stays disabled until you make a change. Names that look like a password are rejected with "This looks like a password, not a name."
Email: Read-only and cannot be edited from the Account page.
Sign out
Go to Settings → Account.
Click Sign out.
Warning: Signing out removes your local Wispr Flow data from this device — including transcript history, dictionary, notes, Todos, notifications, and meetings/calendar cache. App preferences (language, shortcuts, polish instructions, and styles) are preserved. To reset everything to defaults, delete your account instead.
Switch to a different account
Sign out of your current account.
Click Sign in via browser on the sign-in screen.
Sign in with the other account in your browser. Choose Apple, Google, Microsoft, SSO, or email on the web sign-in page.
Team data from the previous account is cleared automatically when you switch.
Note: If you don't complete browser sign-in promptly, the attempt will expire and you'll need to retry. If your organization uses an enterprise IP allowlist and you're on a blocked network, you'll see a "Your network isn't allowed" screen with Retry and Sign Out options. Retry restarts the sign-in flow; if you're still on a blocked network, you'll return to the same screen.
Change your password (email accounts only)
Sign out of the Wispr Flow app.
Click Sign in via browser, then Forgot password.
Enter your email address and click Send. You'll see a "Password reset email sent" confirmation when it's on its way.
Follow the instructions sent to your inbox. Weak passwords may be rejected.
Delete your account
Go to Settings → Account.
Click Delete account at the bottom of the page.
Confirm when the dialog warns: "This will delete all your data, memory, and dictionary, locally and on our servers."
iOS
View and edit your account details
Open the Wispr Flow app.
Open the Menu and tap Account.
You'll see your avatar, name, email, subscription plan, and usage stats (total words dictated and WPM). On free plans and trials, the Menu also shows a usage progress bar. Tap the profile area to edit your name. The Account screen also includes Manage plan, View privacy policy, and How to use Flow links.
Sign out
Open the Menu and tap Account.
Tap Sign Out.
Confirm when the alert appears.
Warning: You'll be signed out of this device and recording stops.
Switch to a different account
Sign out of the current account.
Choose your sign-in method on the login screen. Google and Apple appear by default; tap More Options for Microsoft, SSO, and email.
Sign in with your other account.
Team data from the previous account is cleared automatically when you switch.
Note: If you enter an email that's already linked to a different provider (Apple, Google, Microsoft, or SSO), you'll be routed to a "Welcome back" screen with a button to sign in via that provider.
Note: If the verification challenge fails to load (for example, when you're offline), the email sign-in path is blocked and you'll see a "Verification Service Unavailable" screen. Use a different network, or sign in with Google, Apple, Microsoft, or SSO instead.
Change your password (email accounts only)
Tap More Options on the sign-in screen, then Continue with Email.
Enter your email address.
Tap Forgot password.
Tap Send. You'll see a "Password reset email sent" confirmation when it's on its way. Follow the instructions sent to your inbox. Passwords must be at least 6 characters.
Note: After the reset email is sent, you'll be returned to the password screen. A verification challenge is required for account creation, password reset, and resending verification emails.
Delete your account
Open the Menu and tap Account.
Tap Delete Account at the bottom of the screen.
Confirm when the alert appears.
Android
View and edit your account details
Open the Wispr Flow app.
Open the dashboard drawer and tap Account.
You'll see your avatar, name, email, and subscription plan. Tap the profile card to edit your first and last name (first name required, last name optional). The Account screen also includes links to the Privacy Policy and a guide to using Wispr Flow on Android.
Sign out
Open the dashboard drawer and tap Account.
Tap Sign out.
Tap Sign out again to confirm.
Warning: Signing out on Android removes all transcripts stored on your device. The confirmation dialog reads "Sign out and delete transcripts?"
Note: A loading overlay appears during sign-out, and the back button is temporarily disabled until sign-out completes.
Switch to a different account
Sign out of the current account.
Choose your login method on the sign-in screen: Continue with Google, Apple, Microsoft, SSO, or Email.
Sign in with your other account.
Team data from the previous account is cleared automatically when you switch.
Change your password (email accounts only)
Tap Continue with Email on the sign-in screen.
Enter your email and tap Continue.
Tap Forgot password? on the password entry screen.
Tap Send reset link and follow the instructions sent to your inbox. Passwords must be between 6 and 72 characters.
Delete your account
Android does not have an in-app Delete account button. Use the desktop app, or submit a request:
Open the drawer and tap Report an issue.
Set Request type to Account management.
Submit the request.
Note: Submitting a request via "Report an issue" opens a support ticket — it does not itself delete the account. Work with support to complete deletion, or delete via desktop.
Weekly word usage
Free plan weekly word limits depend on your platform:
Desktop (Mac/Windows) free plan: 2,000 words per week (soft cap), with a 5,000-word hard cap.
iOS free plan: 1,000 words per week (soft cap), with a 1,500-word hard cap.
Bonus words: Some free users receive a bonus grant the first time they hit the weekly limit on desktop. Students, enterprise users, and users with a referrer are excluded. During an active bonus, both caps rise to 10,000 words for exactly 7 days.
Note: These caps don't appear on the Settings → Account page — they appear in the sidebar CTA and on the Plans & Billing page. The number shown reflects your current effective cap, so it may differ week to week depending on your plan or any bonuses applied.
Plan-change sync on desktop
After upgrading, downgrading, or any billing change, the desktop app updates your subscription automatically. In most cases the change arrives within seconds. If the plan still hasn't updated, quit and reopen Flow to force a fresh check.
You can also manually refresh: in Plans & Billing, click Sync subscription from account. There's a short cooldown between manual sync attempts. If it's still not updated after reopening, contact support.
Note: This also applies to team plan changes. If your admin changed the team's plan but your desktop app still shows the old plan, quit and reopen the app or use the manual Sync subscription from account button.
Note: If a manual sync would downgrade your plan (paying → non-paying) compared to what the app currently shows, the sync is refused as a safeguard and you'll see an error toast. This protects against transient errors.
Common issues
I clicked a verification link and got an error about it being expired
Verification links expire after a period of time. If yours has expired, you'll see a clear message ("That verification link has expired") and be directed back to the sign-up page to request a new one. To get a fresh link:
Go to start.wisprflow.ai and re-enter your email address.
Click Resend verification email.
Check your inbox and click the new link promptly.
The app crashed after I deleted my account (Mac and Windows)
This was caused by a crash that occurred immediately after account deletion on Mac and Windows, fixed in a recent update. Update Wispr Flow to the latest version to get this fix.
After account deletion, the app now starts a fresh session automatically — no restart required.
Restoring an iOS purchase shows no response or doesn't update my subscription
This was caused by two issues: a purchase restore that didn't complete without showing any message, and a case where a restore appeared to succeed but the subscription status didn't update. Both are fixed in the latest version. Update Wispr Flow to get this fix.
After updating, restore attempts now show one of these alerts. Only Entitlement Found closes the paywall — the other alerts leave it open so you can try again.
Entitlement Found: Success. Tap OK — your subscription updates and the paywall closes.
Subscription Linked to Another Account: Sign in with the Wispr Flow account that originally purchased the subscription, or contact support.
Purchase Found, Sync Needed: The store-side restore succeeded but Wispr Flow could not confirm an active subscription. Check your internet connection and try restoring again, or contact support.
No Active Subscription Found: Verify you're signed into the App Store with the Apple ID that made the purchase.
Restore Failed: Generic fallback. Update Wispr Flow and try again, or contact support.
Name, email, or profile picture appears blank when opening the app
This was caused by a display loading issue that required restarting the app to see your details. It's fixed — your name, email, and avatar now display correctly as soon as you open the app. Update Wispr Flow to the latest version to get this fix.
FAQs
I just upgraded but my account still shows Basic
The desktop app usually picks up subscription changes within seconds. If your plan still shows Basic after a short wait, fully quit and reopen Wispr Flow, or click Sync subscription from account in Plans & Billing. If it's still not updated, contact support.
My team plan changed but the desktop app didn't update
When a team admin changes the plan, each team member's desktop app needs to sync the change. If the plan still shows the old value after a short wait, fully quit and reopen the app, or use the Sync subscription from account button in Plans & Billing.
Why does my word limit look different this week?
Your account view always shows your current effective word limit. If you received bonus words, the cap shown will be higher for that week — such as 10,000 words instead of the usual 2,000. Once the bonus period ends, the cap returns to your plan's standard limit.
Can I change my account email or sign-in method?
Your account is tied to the sign-in method you originally used. To use a different email or sign-in method, delete your current account and create a new one:
Delete your current account (Settings → Account → Delete account on desktop).
Create a new account using your new email or sign-in method.
Your dictionary, snippets, stats, and history do not transfer. If you have a paid subscription, contact support for billing adjustments before deleting.
What's the difference between signing in with email vs. Apple, Google, or Microsoft?
With Apple, Google, or Microsoft, those providers verify your identity — you don't set a separate password with Flow. With email/password, your credentials are managed directly by Wispr Flow.
Password resets: Email accounts reset via Flow's "Forgot password" flow. Apple, Google, and Microsoft accounts reset through those providers.
Email verification: New email/password accounts receive a verification email and cannot sign in until verified. On iOS and Android, the app signs you in automatically once you click the link. Trying to sign in before verifying shows a "user not verified" error.
Same email, different method: Trying to sign up with email using an address already linked to another method shows an "account already exists" error. Sign in with the original method.
What's different about signing in with SSO?
SSO lets you authenticate using your organization's identity provider. It also works when initiated from your provider (for example, clicking the Wispr Flow tile in your identity provider's dashboard). SSO enforcement requires an active enterprise subscription.
When SSO is enforced by your organization, all non-SSO sign-in attempts (including Google and other sign-in methods) are rejected. SSO-enforced organizations also block email/password signup — not only sign-in. Enforcement automatically lifts if your enterprise subscription lapses.
Directory-sync-managed domains are a separate mechanism: they block email/password signup regardless of billing status. If your email domain is managed this way, you'll see a message directing you to contact your IT admin for access.
Password resets, account settings, and access changes are handled through your SSO provider, not Wispr Flow. If your organization uses directory sync, contact your IT admin for account provisioning.
Can I sign in with an email alias (containing +)?
Email aliases containing "+" (for example, user+alias@example.com) are not supported when creating a new email/password account. You'll see an error asking you to use your original email address. If you already have an existing account created with an alias email, you can still log in as normal. This restriction does not apply to Apple, Google, or Microsoft sign-in.
Email signup may also be blocked if:
Your organization enforces SSO — sign in through your SSO provider instead.
Your email domain is managed via directory sync — contact your IT admin for provisioning.
I tried to sign up with email but was told my address is already registered
You'll see "User already exists" for any pre-existing account — not specifically one linked to a different provider. The same error appears even if the original account was created with email/password. Try signing in with the email/password flow, or with Apple, Google, Microsoft, or SSO if you originally used one of those.
If the email is registered but unverified, the system silently resends the verification email — check your inbox before assuming an error occurred.
What are the password requirements for an email/password account?
Password requirements vary by platform:
Android: 6–72 characters.
iOS: Minimum of 6 characters.
Desktop (Mac/Windows): Weak passwords may be rejected.
Can I use the same account on work and personal devices?
Yes. Your Flow account works across any combination of personal and work Mac, Windows, iPhone, and Android devices.
Use separate accounts if:
Your work requires data isolation.
You want separate dictionaries for work vs. personal.
Your company provides Flow through a Team or Enterprise plan.
If your employer provides Flow Enterprise, use your work email for the work account. Your personal account remains separate.
How do I cancel my subscription?
You can cancel your subscription from the Plans & Billing page in Settings. When you cancel, your subscription is scheduled to end at the close of your current billing period — you keep full access to all paid features until that date.
Note: If you subscribed through the App Store (iOS), manage your cancellation through your Apple ID subscription settings, not through the Wispr Flow app.
How do I delete my account?
See the Delete your account steps in the platform accordion above for your device.
Account deletion happens in phases:
Validation: Admin checks are performed to make sure deletion is permitted.
Subscription cancellation: Any active paid subscription is cancelled immediately (no prorated refund is issued).
Main data deletion: Your dictionary, snippets, Flow Notes, preferences, referrals, and similar records are removed.
The following are not deleted automatically — they require support to complete a follow-up cleanup:
Login credentials
Cloud transcription history
Stored audio
Usage history
Analytics
Contact support if you want confirmation that follow-up cleanup has been completed. If you try to delete while another deletion for your account is already running, you'll see: "User deletion already in progress. Please try again shortly."
Warning: Account deletion cannot be undone.
If you're the sole admin of an enterprise with other members, deletion is blocked until you assign another admin. If you're the sole admin and the sole member, the enterprise is disbanded as part of deletion.
If you are the paying admin of an enterprise subscription (your payment method is billing the team), deletion is blocked with the message: "User is the paying admin of the enterprise. Please move the payment to another admin before deleting this user." Transfer billing to another admin before attempting deletion.
Local history on other devices is not removed automatically — delete the app on each device to remove it.
I forgot which email I used
Check the welcome email you received when you signed up ("Welcome to Flow").
Try signing in with each email you might have used.
Apple, Google, Microsoft, SSO, and email logins are separate accounts — make sure you're trying the correct sign-in method.
I didn't receive my verification email
Check your spam or junk folder.
Confirm you entered the correct email when signing up.
Try signing in again — you'll be prompted to resend the verification email if your account isn't verified.
If you request a new link too many times in a short period, you'll see a "Too many attempts — please try again later" message. Wait a few minutes before trying again.
If you still don't receive it, contact support.
I forgot my password
See the Change your password steps in the platform accordion above for your device.
After resetting your password, all sessions on all devices are signed out for security. Sign back in everywhere. In rare cases, sessions on other devices may not be terminated — if you're concerned about another device, sign out manually there as well.
I subscribed through Apple (App Store) and can't find my account
"Sign in with Apple" may have created a private relay email. Check your Apple ID settings to see which email was shared with Flow.
On Mac:
Open the App Store.
Select Store in the menu bar, then View My Account.
Check the Apple ID shown at the top — this is the account that manages subscriptions.
Select View Information, then scroll to Subscriptions.
To check whether you used Hide My Email:
Open the Apple menu → System Settings.
Select your name → iCloud+ → Hide My Email.
Choose Wispr Flow to view any relay email associated with your account.
On iPhone:
Open iOS Settings and tap your name.
Tap Subscriptions and find Wispr Flow in the list.
If you don't see the subscription, you may be signed into the wrong Apple ID, or it may be billed to a Family Sharing organizer. Once you've identified the correct email, sign in with Apple again — it will recognize your Apple ID.
I have two accounts and want to merge them
Account merging isn't supported. To consolidate:
Choose which account to keep.
Recreate dictionary entries manually in the primary account.
Contact support if you have subscriptions on both accounts.
I can't sign out
Restart the app and try signing out again.
Reinstall the app if the button doesn't respond — this signs you out automatically.
Someone else is logged into my account
Sign out on your current device.
Change your password via Forgot password on the sign-in screen (email accounts only).
Sign back in on your devices.
For Apple, Google, or Microsoft logins, secure those accounts directly. For SSO, contact your organization's IT administrator.
Still need help?
Reach out to our support team if:
You need to transition to a new account with a different email.
You need to transfer a subscription between accounts.
You suspect unauthorized access to your account.
On desktop, click the Help button in the sidebar, then Talk to support. On iOS, go to Menu → Talk to Support. On Android, open the drawer and tap Report an Issue. Include your platform, device, and a brief description of what you've already tried — most account issues are resolved in one reply.
