Manage your Flow account

Available on: Mac, Windows, iOS, Android

View your account details, switch accounts, reset your password, or delete your account — all from within the Wispr Flow app. This guide covers each task on every platform.


How to manage your account

Mac

View and edit your account details

  1. Click the Flow icon in your menu bar, then click the gear icon to open Settings.

  2. Click Account.

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.

  • Name validation: Names containing digits, special characters, common password patterns (e.g., "pass", "pwd", "123", "qwerty"), or more than 30 characters are rejected with "This looks like a password, not a name."

Log out

  1. Go to Settings → Account.

  2. Click Sign out.

Warning: Signing out wipes your local Wispr Flow database — transcript history, dictionary, notes, and meetings/calendar cache — from this device. App preferences (language, shortcuts, styles) are preserved. To reset everything to defaults, delete your account instead.

  4. Tap Send reset link and follow the instructions sent to your inbox.

Delete your account

Android does not have an in-app Delete account button. Use the desktop app, or submit a request: open the drawer → Report an issue → set Request type to Account management → submit. The drawer opens to Share feedback by default, so switch tabs to Report an issue first.

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. Your account is tied to the sign-in method you used when you first created it — signing in with a different method using the same email will direct you back to the original method.


Common issues

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 v1.5.29. Update Wispr Flow to the latest version to get this fix.

Restoring an iOS purchase shows no response or doesn't update my subscription

This was caused by two issues: a silent failure when a purchase restore couldn't complete, and a case where a restore appeared to succeed but the subscription status didn't update. Both are fixed in the latest version.

After updating, restore attempts now show one of these alerts:

  • Entitlement Found: Success. Tap OK — your subscription updates and the paywall closes.

  • Apple ID linked to a different Wispr Flow account: Sign out, sign back in with the Wispr Flow account you originally used to purchase, then try restoring again.

  • Purchase Found, Sync Needed: Check your internet connection and try restoring again.

  • 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 is 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

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:

  1. Delete your current account (Settings → Account → Delete account on desktop).

  2. 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 (e.g., clicking the Wispr Flow tile in Okta). SSO enforcement requires an active enterprise subscription.

When SSO is enforced by your organization, all non-SSO sign-in attempts (including Google and other OAuth) are rejected. Enforcement automatically lifts if your enterprise subscription lapses.

Password resets, account settings, and access changes are handled through your SSO provider — not Wispr Flow. If your organization uses directory sync (SCIM), contact your IT admin for account provisioning.

Can I sign in with an email alias (containing +)?

Email aliases containing "+" (e.g., user+alias@example.com) are not supported when creating an email/password account. You'll see an error asking you to use your original email address. This restriction does not apply to Apple, Google, or Microsoft sign-in.

I tried to sign up with email but was told my address is already registered

Your email is already linked to a different sign-in method (such as Google or Apple). Sign in using the original method — the app directs you to the correct provider.

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 delete my account?

  • Mac and Windows: Settings → Account → Delete account.

  • iOS: Menu → Account → Delete Account. (You can also submit a request via Menu → Talk to Support → Report an Issue → Request type: Account management.)

  • Android: Use the desktop app, or open the drawer → Report an issue → Request type: Account management → submit.

Warning: Account deletion removes your dictionary entries, snippets, Flow Notes, and local database records. Your login credentials and cloud-stored transcription history are fully removed after the deletion request is processed. This cannot be undone.

If you're the sole admin of an enterprise with other members, assign another admin first. If you're the paying admin of an enterprise subscription, transfer billing to another admin before deleting your account.

Local history on other devices is not removed automatically — delete the app on each device to remove it. If you have an active Stripe subscription, it is cancelled immediately when your deletion is processed. No prorated refund is issued.

I forgot which email I used

  1. Check the welcome email you received when you signed up ("Welcome to Flow").

  2. 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

  1. Check your spam or junk folder.

  2. Confirm you entered the correct email when signing up.

  3. Try signing in again — you'll be prompted to resend the verification email if your account isn't verified.

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.

I subscribed through Apple (App Store) and can't find my account

"Sign in with Apple" may have created a private relay email (random@privaterelay.appleid.com). Check your Apple ID settings to see which email was shared with Flow.

On Mac:

  1. Open the App Store.

  2. Select Store in the menu bar, then View My Account.

  3. Check the Apple ID shown at the top — this is the account that manages subscriptions.

  4. Select View Information, then scroll to Subscriptions.

To check whether you used Hide My Email:

  1. Open the Apple menu → System Settings.

  2. Select your name → iCloud+ → Hide My Email.

  3. Choose Wispr Flow to view any relay email associated with your account.

On iPhone:

  1. Open iOS Settings and tap your name.

  2. 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:

  1. Choose which account to keep.

  2. Recreate dictionary entries manually in the primary account.

  3. Contact support if you have subscriptions on both accounts.

I can't log out

  1. Restart the app and try logging out again.

  2. Reinstall the app if the button doesn't respond — this logs you out automatically.

Someone else is logged into my account

  1. Log out on your current device.

  2. Change your password via Forgot password on the sign-in screen (email accounts only).

  3. Log 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 Help in the Flow app, 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.
