Let’s look at the step-by-step process through the website and on the phone.

This method does not require downloading and installing the application – it is enough to open the site in a browser. 

Step-by-step process:

  1. Open the main page of the official website and select free registration.
  2. Enter your date of birth – you can enter any numbers, as this is just protection from bots.
  3. In the form that appears, specify the current email address where the link for the authorization process should come.
  4. Click on authorization. You will be automatically redirected to the program page. If this does not happen, you need to copy the link under this button.
  5. Specify the answer “Yes” or “No” to the question about registering a user on behalf of the school.
  6. Enter your initials and password. The requirements for the latter are quite strict, so until you come up with the right combination, registration will not continue further.
  7. The next step related to inviting friends can be skipped if desired.
  8. Complete the registration process and open the application again by entering your username and password.
