Account Linking

What is account linking?

Accessible Notes supports signing in with either Google or Microsoft. If you have accounts with both providers that share the same email address, they are linked automatically — you can use either one to sign in to the same Accessible Notes account.

How it works

When you sign in, Accessible Notes identifies you by your email address. If you first sign in with Google using you@example.com, and later sign in with Microsoft using the same email address, the system recognizes that both sign-ins belong to the same person. Your accounts are linked automatically at that point.

From then on, you can use either Google or Microsoft to sign in — whichever is most convenient. Both will take you to the same account with the same notes, settings, and subscription.

What stays connected

Everything in your Accessible Notes account is tied to your account identity, not to a specific sign-in provider. That means:

  • Your notes are all there, regardless of which provider you used to sign in.
  • Your subscription carries over — your plan and billing history are attached to your account.
  • Your settings remain the same.

Accounts with different email addresses

Automatic linking only works when both providers use the same email address. If your Google account uses one address and your Microsoft account uses a different one, they will be treated as separate Accessible Notes accounts.

If you're in that situation and need help consolidating, contact support.

Signing in after linking

Once your accounts are linked, you can sign in with either Google or Microsoft at any time. If you're not sure which provider you used originally, try both — if your email address matches, either one will work.

See Signing In for step-by-step sign-in instructions.
