Account Settings Overview
What are Account Settings?
Account Settings control your personal and security-related configuration in ReelBot.
They define:
- who owns the account
- how you authenticate
- how your identity is managed
- how your data is protected
Account Settings are global — they apply across all projects, plans, and workflows.
What Account Settings are for
Account Settings exist to:
- manage identity and access
- control login methods
- protect account security
- handle ownership-sensitive actions
They are intentionally separated from:
- video creation
- publishing
- branding
- subscription management
What lives in Account Settings
The Account Settings section includes:
- Account Information
- Email & Verification
- Social Login Connections
- Password Management
- Referral Program
- Billing Access
- Danger Zone (Account Deletion)
Each area controls a specific aspect of account ownership.
Account information
Your account profile displays:
- email address
- verification status
- linked social providers
- user ID
- last sign-in activity
This information is read-only except where explicitly editable.
Authentication methods
ReelBot supports multiple authentication methods:
- email + password
- Apple
- X (Twitter)
If a social login is linked:
- it becomes the preferred login method
- email verification is handled automatically
- password login may be optional
Smart login detection
When entering an email during login or signup:
- ReelBot detects linked social accounts
- highlights the correct provider
- prevents duplicate accounts
This ensures a single identity per email.
Password and email management
From Account Settings, you can:
- change your password
- update your email address
- trigger verification flows
Security-sensitive actions require verification.
Referral program access
The Referral Program appears in Account Settings only for paid users.
From there, you can:
- view your referral code
- copy your referral link
- track earned credits
- see referred users
Referral behavior is documented separately.
Billing access
Account Settings provide access to:
- subscription management
- payment updates
- plan changes
Billing is handled securely via Stripe.
Danger Zone
The Danger Zone contains irreversible actions.
From here, you can:
- delete your account
- permanently remove all data
- revoke access immediately
Deletion removes:
- projects
- assets
- drafts
- channels
- subscriptions
This action requires explicit confirmation.
What Account Settings do NOT control
Account Settings do not:
- affect video quality
- reset usage limits
- modify projects
- change branding
- publish content
They control identity — not workflows.
Best practices for account management
For safety and clarity:
- keep your email verified
- link a social login as backup
- review connected providers periodically
- use the Danger Zone carefully
Account Settings are about ownership and trust.
The CreatorOps perspective
In CreatorOps, systems must know who owns what.
Account Settings:
- establish identity boundaries
- protect access
- make destructive actions explicit
They form the foundation every workflow builds on.
