Starting to use Jottacloud to Backup, Sync, or Store your data requires you to complete three easy steps:

1. Sign up for a Jottacloudaccount.

If you want to sign up for a private account, click here

You will initially sign up for a free account, but you can upgrade it at any time by logging onto www.jottacloud.com, and then select "My account" and "Subscription". You can also use one of the many "Upgrade now" links you will see both on the webpage and in the Jottacloud software.

The "Sign-up form" for a private account is very easy to fill in (see below). Remember that the e-mail and username has to be unique, so you cannot sign up several account with the same e-mailadress for example.

Please store your password in a safe place e.g. a passwordbank, for future reference.

2. Download and install the Jottacloud application on your devices

To setup Backup or Sync on one of your devices, you will need to download and install the client that matches your device. We are currently supporting devices that use the following operating systems: Windows, macOS, Android and iOS.
