A more secure, consistent way to log in

‍We've updated the login experience for Lucen Timeline and across other Lucen products and Account Center, making it more secure and consistent wherever you access your Lucen account.

  • New look, same account: You'll see a new Lucen Software login screen. The first time you log in, enter your email, click Next, then enter your usual password.
  • Nothing changes with your account: Your password, licenses, subscriptions, and files all stay the same.
  • Use Google or Microsoft? You can continue logging in the same way you always have.
  • Easier for new customers: New users can create an account using a verification code sent to their email.
