Create an account and sign in
How to create a Nubo account, turn on two-step verification or a passkey, and recover access if you forget your password.
To create an account, go to home.nubosuite.tech, choose a username, enter your first and last name and a password of at least 10 characters. Your username also becomes your mailbox, username@nubo.email.
How do I create an account?
- Open Nubo Home and choose to create an account.
- Pick a username. Nubo checks that it is free, including against existing mailboxes, and suggests three free names if it is taken.
- Enter your first and last name. Both are required.
- Choose a password. It must be at least 10 characters, must not be a common password and must not contain your username.
- Optionally add a recovery email. Nubo sends a 6-digit code that is valid for 30 minutes; enter it to verify the address.
How do I join a team I was invited to?
Open the invitation link you received, enter your first and last name and finish sign-up. If your team uses its own domain, you sign in with your work address and its mailbox password. See Invites and members.
How do I sign in?
Enter your username and password. If the account has two-step verification you are then asked for a second step. A passkey signs you in on its own, with no second step.
A session lasts 30 days. If you tick “remember this device” on the second step, that device is not asked again for 30 days.
How do I turn on two-step verification?
Open Home, then the Security tab. You can add:
- An authenticator app (a time-based code, 6 digits, changing every 30 seconds). Nubo also gives you 10 single-use backup codes.
- A passkey (WebAuthn). Passkeys can sign you in without typing a username.
- An emailed code, as an opt-in extra.
Changing sensitive settings (recovery email, authenticator, passkeys) asks you to confirm your password or passkey again; a confirmation lasts 10 minutes.
What if I forget my password?
Choose “forgot password” on the sign-in page. If your account has a verified recovery email, Nubo sends an 8-digit code and a link to it. The code is valid for 30 minutes, works once and allows 5 tries. Resetting your password signs you out of every session and forgotten device. Without a verified recovery email, Nubo cannot send a reset; write to support.
What alerts will I get?
Nubo emails you when someone signs in from a browser or system it has not seen, when your password changes, when two-step verification or a passkey is added or removed, when your recovery email changes and when your account is locked. Each new-device mail has a “this was not me” link. You can switch the new-sign-in and password-change alerts off per account.
What happens after too many wrong passwords?
The account is locked for a short time that grows with each failure (from 30 seconds up to 15 minutes after ten failures), and Nubo emails you.
Can my organization require two-step verification?
Yes. A team owner or admin can require it for everyone in the team and set a grace period. See Security settings for a team.
How do I see where I am signed in?
In the Security tab under “Where you are signed in” you can sign out one session or all other sessions.
How do I delete my account?
Open Account in Home and use Delete account. It signs you out everywhere and schedules the deletion with a 30-day period to change your mind. See Deleting your account for what is kept and what is not yet confirmed.
