# Your Pidgeon account

> Sign in at account.pidgeon.health to manage your profile, see your plan and entitlements, and reach the downloads catalog.

Your Pidgeon account lives at [account.pidgeon.health](https://account.pidgeon.health). One sign-in covers every product: it's where you manage your profile, see which plan and entitlements you hold, and reach the downloads catalog. Post's core loop works without an account; Flock, Loft, Migrate, and the Pidgeon launcher sign in with this account.

## One loop: sign in, check your plan, get the apps

<Steps>
  <Step title="Sign in or create an account">
    Open [account.pidgeon.health](https://account.pidgeon.health). Four ways in:

    * **Email and password**
    * **Magic link** — enter your email, click the link it sends, no password
    * **Google**
    * **Microsoft**

    A logged-out visit to any account page sends you here first, then returns you where you were headed.
  </Step>

  <Step title="See your plan and entitlements">
    The account view shows the plan you're on and the entitlements it carries per product, so you know what each app includes when you sign in there.

    Self-serve subscription and billing management arrive with the paid beta. Until then the plan view is read-only; to change a plan, email [support@pidgeon.health](mailto:support@pidgeon.health).
  </Step>

  <Step title="Open the downloads catalog">
    The downloads catalog is public — you can reach it signed out. It lists each app, its current version, and a SHA-256 checksum per file.

    Before the first signed artifacts publish, the catalog shows an honest **"No artifacts published yet"** empty state rather than dead links. Once builds land, download the installer for each app you want and follow [Install on Windows](/getting-started/install-windows) or [Install on macOS](/getting-started/install-macos).
  </Step>
</Steps>

## When something fails

| What you see                                                       | What it means                                    | Next action                                                                                                               |
| ------------------------------------------------------------------ | ------------------------------------------------ | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| You land on the **Sign-in** page when you expected an account page | You're signed out, or the session expired        | Sign in again with any of the four methods; you'll return to the page you wanted.                                         |
| The downloads catalog reads **"No artifacts published yet"**       | No signed build has published to the catalog yet | This is expected during the beta ramp; check back, or watch [Known issues](/support/known-issues) for the publish status. |
| An account page shows a bounded error with a **Retry**             | The account service couldn't be reached          | Retry once you're back online; your session and plan data are unaffected.                                                 |

Entitlement-linked downloads and a devices-and-versions view are planned beta work and are not in the portal yet.
