Aura frames are a great way to share and display your memories with loved ones. In most cases, it is required to set up a free, and secure, Aura Frames account in order to set up and manage a frame and to benefit from all the many features. 

1) When do I need an account

An Aura Account is required in order to:

• Use the Aura Frames app or Web Uploader 
• Set up a new frame (in combination with the Aura Frames app) 
• Upload photos or videos to a frame 
• Prepare a frame with a pre-loaded gift message and photos 
• Control your frame(s) and settings 

You will not require an account if:

• Somebody with an account set it up in your home and you only want to use the basic controls via the Touch Bar. 
• You want to buy it as a gift for somebody special 

2) How to set up your account

You can easily set up your account with an email address and a password of your choice when starting the Aura Frames app (auraframes.com/app) or using the Web uploader (app.auraframes.com) for the first time.  Please ensure you verify the confirmation email that we are sending to you as part of the account setup.
