Registration: Require Email Verification? #41
Comments
I would argue that we should let people start using the app straight away after sign up to keep up the momentum of wanting to use the app. I feel strongly that breaking people away from that pattern to go to their inboxes then back to the app sits in the opposite corner of the ring to the simplicity we're going for. There are reasons to have an email verification at some stage is a good thing - prevention of bots, ensuring people are actually the owner of the email address they're registering with - but this shouldn't mess with the flow at sign up. Curious to see what other people think! |
I would say we've agreed that people should be able to start using the app immediately after registration: #53 |
Oh, this is an easy thing to fix. |
I currently don't see a need for a verification step. Most of the applications I have signed up to in the last 2 years (apart from government apps) have done away with this too. Given that there will be an email and password already created at registration, I don't see this step as necessary for now. If we get too many spam emails or have issues with people losing access to their tasks/thoughts, then we can revisit this. |
Should we require people to confirm their email address by clicking a link we send to their email address?
