# Your MeatStick account

## Do you even need one?

You can cook with just the app and Bluetooth — **no account required** for everyday use. An account unlocks the **cloud features**: your cook history syncs across your devices, and you can **check a cook from anywhere** over the internet.

(Sharing a live cook to another phone on the *same* WiFi — WiFi Link — works without an account. Full cloud and remote monitoring need one. See [Monitoring your cook over WiFi](/cooking-and-care/cooking-and-care/wifi-cloud-monitoring.md).)

## Create an account or sign in

Use whichever is easiest:

* **Email** — enter your email, name, and a password.
* **Google** or **Facebook** — one tap, no separate password to remember.

Trouble getting in? See [I'm having trouble logging in](/the-meatstick-app/app/having-trouble-logging-into-the-app.md).

## Forgot your password?

On the login screen, tap the **forgot password** link and we'll email you a reset link. (Signed up with Google or Facebook? Use that same button to get back in — there's no separate MeatStick password.)

## Sign out or switch accounts

**Menu → Settings → Account → Sign out.** Sign back in with any account.

## Delete your account

**Menu → Settings → Account → Delete account.** This permanently removes your account and the cook history saved to the cloud.

> Just want to stop syncing to the cloud without deleting anything? You don't have to delete your account — turn **Cloud** off in Settings instead.
