Getting started

Sign in & invites

InnerHook has no passwords. You type your email address and get a sign-in link by email. While InnerHook is in closed beta, a new account needs an invite.

Where to find it

Go to app.innerhook.com. If you are not signed in, you land on the Sign in page.

Ways in during the closed beta

There are three ways to get an account:

  • An invite code. Someone gave you a code that looks like XXXX-XXXX-XXXX, or a link with the code in it. A code can have a limited number of uses or an end date, and some codes work for one email address only.
  • An invite from the waitlist. Join the waitlist on innerhook.com. When your turn comes, you get an email with your invite link. That invite works for that email address only, and the email says until when it works.
  • An invite to a song. A songwriter shares a song with you, by email or with a share link. Opening it lets you make an account and takes you straight to the song. See Sharing a song.

Once you have an account, you never need a code again.

Step by step

  1. Open app.innerhook.com (or your invite link).
  2. Type your email address and press Email me a sign-in link. If this is a new account, open New here? I have an invite code first and type the code. An invite link fills it in for you.
  3. Open the email and the link in it.
  4. Press Continue to the editor. You are signed in.

The page always says the same thing after step 2, whether or not the address has an account, so nobody can use the form to find out who uses InnerHook.

Staying signed in

After you sign in, InnerHook remembers you on that browser, so you don't need a new link every time. If your session ends while a song is open, a banner says Your session has expired. Sign in again to save your changes. Press Sign in again: the song you have open is saved first.

If you sign in as another person in another tab of the same browser, the older tab stops sending anything and says You signed in as another user in another tab. Reload to continue as them. Press Reload. If that tab has changes that could not be saved, it asks before reloading, so you can copy your lyrics first.

Signing out

Open the account menu (your initial at the bottom of the left rail) and choose Log out. The song you have open is saved first, and the copies of your songs kept on this device are removed.

Limits

Didn't get the email?

  • Check your spam or promotions folder.
  • Make sure you typed the address you were invited with.
  • Wait a minute: the email is sent within seconds, but some mail services are slower.
  • A link that has expired or was used already shows This link does not work any more. Press Get a new link.
