Creating an account
You can sign up for OneLit with your Google account or with your email address. Either way, every account has an email address, and it's how we contact you if something goes wrong. We recommend not using a school email address, since it may stop working once you graduate.
You must be 13 or older to create an account.
Your date of birth is used only for age checks. It is never shown publicly or used for other purposes.
Your account gets a username when it's created. It's part of the link to your page, and it can't be changed. Your display name is what other people see on your stories and profile, and you can set it or change it any time on your account page. It can be 2 to 32 characters long, using letters, numbers, spaces, hyphens, underscores and apostrophes.
If you create a story, please note that it's not possible to transfer it to another account.
