Your web profile and signing in

Sharing trips on the web needs a free web profile. Your logbook itself needs no account: it stays on your devices and in your iCloud.

Signing in

Open Settings → Web sharing and tap “Sign in”. There are three ways, none with a password:

• Sign in with Apple. You can hide your e-mail address; Apple then forwards our mail to you.
• Sign in with Google.
• E-mail. Enter your address and tap “Continue”. We send you a six-digit code, valid for 10 minutes.

The first sign-in creates your account. Sign in the same way on your other devices, and they all share one profile.

Setting up your profile

Once you're signed in, Settings shows your profile. Tap it to set it up:

• Username: your address on sailwithmanta.com. Letters, numbers and underscores, 3 to 30 characters. You can change it every 30 days; the old address keeps forwarding for 3 months.
• Photo, display name and bio
• Boat name and type
• Links to Instagram, YouTube or your blog

Tap “Save profile” at the bottom when you're done.

Who can see it

With “Public profile” on, your profile and the trips you share can appear on this site's Discover page. Switch it off, and your profile isn't shown and nothing of yours is listed. Trip links you send keep working either way.

Signing out and deleting

Signing out ends web sharing on all your devices. Your shared trips stay online; sign in again to manage them.

“Delete account” removes your profile, your username and every trip and photo you shared from our servers, and revokes Sign in with Apple. Your logbook on your devices isn't touched.

Trips shared before accounts existed

If you shared trips with Manta Pro before sign-in was needed, sign in once on that device. Your username, shared trips and links carry over to your account.
