How can I create a profile on Keet?

To start using Keet, no email or phone number is required. To begin chatting, simply install the app and create a profile to connect with others. Creating a unique username is optional and will help other users to find you and send requests or chat room invitations.

Follow these steps to create your Keet profile:

1

Download & Open Keet

On launch, select: “I’m a new user. Create a new profile”.

2

Set up a recovery phrase

A recovery phrase is a 24-word code that works as a password. If you lose your device or reinstall the app, you can use it to restore your profile and messages.

Setting a pass phrase is a critical step, as it’s the only way to recover your account or move it to a new device. 🔏

You can skip this step at the moment, although we strongly suggest setting the recovery phrase to avoid potential data loss. 🛡️

  • Quick setup: Automatically generates a recovery phrase and securely stores it on your device.

  • Manual setup: Allows you to write down and manage the recovery phrase yourself.

Please note that in case of Manual setup, you should copy or write down the recovery phrase immediately. 🔑

Complete setting up

Once your profile is created, click Finish setup to move forward.

4

Choose a display name

Your display name is what other users will see in rooms and chats. You can type in a name you like, or let Keet generate one for you.

A display name can be changed at any time.

5

Choose a username (optional, but recommended)

Your username is how others can find you on Keet. You can choose your username now, or skip and add one later.

If you prefer to remain undiscoverable by username, skip this step.

Just remember: other users won’t be able to find you unless you share your profile QR code with them 🔎

You can learn more about usernames in the Keet Username section.

6

Feel free to add a profile picture to express your personality

That’s it! 🖍️ You’re ready to go!

You can now join rooms, discover communities or chat peer-to-peer and explore Keet!
