Do I need to create an account to use Storage Studio?
Short answer: No account or password is needed. You verify your email once to start the trial, and the only sign-ins are cloud accounts or devices you choose to connect yourself.
No account or password is needed. To start the free trial you enter your name, email and country and confirm the email with a one-time code — that's all.
The only sign-ins inside the app are the ones you choose: cloud accounts you connect for transfers or backups, and devices you pair with Bridge. A licence is activated with a code or a one-tap email link, not a username and password.
