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 Aura 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) Should I use more than one Aura account?

While it’s technically possible to create and log into multiple Aura accounts, we strongly recommend using a single account per frame owner to manage all of their frames.

Using one account ensures:

• Easier access to all your frames in one place

• Simpler photo and video management

• Fewer login issues or confusion when switching devices

• Smoother sharing with friends and family

For more information on managing multiple frames please see: Managing multiple Aura frames.

3) How do I set up an Aura 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. 

4) How do I change my password?

If you require a password reset, you can do this using the Aura App or the Web Uploader and requesting a password reset email. Please click here to view the step by steps instructions.
