Help with Tekkoh

Getting a new phone

Install Tekkoh, choose I already have one, and enter your username and PIN. Your journal comes back from the server and is decrypted on the new phone. If you use iCloud Keychain, your key may already be there, and the app opens your journal straight away.

If you forget your PIN

While your journal is open on any of your phones, you can choose a new PIN in Settings. Your PIN is the only way to recover your journal on a new phone with no other device, and we can't reset it for you: we never have your key. After ten wrong tries, the server destroys its recovery copy; your journal is untouched, and the app asks you to choose a new PIN.

Reading your journal on a computer

In the app, open Settings › Link a browser or agent, then follow the steps on the web page. You can sign any browser out from the same screen.

Linking a personal agent

Point your agent at tekkoh.com/setup.txt. It will send you a link; open it on your iPhone and approve it. Only link an agent you trust with everything you've written. More on agents →

Deleting your journal

Settings › Delete journal everywhere. It removes your account and everything in it from our server, and it can't be undone. Privacy policy →
