Linking Social Accounts

Connect or disconnect Google and Apple accounts for faster sign-in

Linking Social Accounts

Booqd allows you to connect your Google or Apple account for a faster, password-free sign-in experience. Linking a social account does not replace your email and password — it simply gives you an additional way to log in.

What Does Linking Do?

⚡
Faster Sign-In
Log in with one tap using your Google or Apple account instead of typing your email and password.
📝
Pre-Filled Info
Your name and profile picture from the linked account can be used to fill in your Booqd profile automatically.
🔐
Same Account
Linking connects to your existing Booqd account — it does not create a new one.
🔄
Multiple Providers
You can link both Google and Apple at the same time for maximum flexibility.

Supported Providers

Both providers use industry-standard OAuth 2.0 for secure authentication.

â„šī¸
If you chose to hide your email when linking Apple, Booqd will receive an Apple relay address. Your real email remains private — Apple forwards messages to you automatically.

Unlinking a Social Account

If you no longer want to use a social account for sign-in, you can disconnect it at any time from the same Connected Accounts section. Click the Disconnect button next to the provider you want to remove.

âš ī¸
Before unlinking a social account, make sure you have an email and password set up on your Booqd account. If the social account is your only login method and you have no password configured, you will be locked out. Set a password first in Settings > Profile > Password.

Where to Manage Linked Accounts

All social account connections are managed in Settings > Profile under the Connected Accounts section. On mobile, go to Settings > Profile from the bottom tab bar. You can see which accounts are connected, when they were linked, and disconnect them at any time.

Common Questions

No, you can link one Google account and one Apple account per Booqd account. To switch to a different Google account, disconnect the current one first and then connect the new one.

No. Linking a social account only adds it as a sign-in method. Your Booqd email address remains unchanged.

Nothing changes on Booqd. Social sign-in uses secure tokens, not your password. You will just need to re-authenticate with the new password next time Google or Apple asks.
