Setup
How can I create a new account on Keet?
If you're new to Keet, you'll need to create a profile to start using the app. This helps personalize your experience and connect you with others. However, if you started using Keet before we introduced profiles (also known as identities), you can continue using the app without creating one—though we recommend setting one up for the best experience.
Follow these steps to create your Keet account:
On launch, select: “I’m a new user. Create a new profile”.
Set up your recovery phrase
This is critical—it’s the only way to recover your account if needed.
Quick setup: Auto-generates a recovery phrase and stores it securely on your device.
Manual setup: Lets you write down and manage the recovery phrase yourself.
Finish setup
Once your profile is created, click Finish setup to move forward.
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. Then click Continue.
Choose a username (optional, but recommended)
Your username is how others can search for and find you on Keet. You can choose your username now, or skip and add one later. Just remember: other users won’t be able to find you unless you set a username.
You can learn more about usernames in the Keet Username Registry section.
That’s it! You’re ready to go!
You can now join rooms, discover communities, and chat peer-to-peer and explore Keet!
