Registering
Anyone can register a new account from the sign-up page. Orbit validates:
Registration does not assign a global role. Roles belong to individual projects: creating a project makes you its Owner, while accepting an invitation gives you the base tier and custom roles chosen by the inviter. See Roles and permissions.
Signing in and out
Sign in with your email and password. Signing out is a single click — Orbit doesn’t ask you to confirm before ending your session. By default a session stays valid for as long as you’re active, but you can shorten that from Security & access below.Account settings
Everything covered on this page lives under the Account section of Settings. Open it from the sidebar, or use the direct paths/settings/profile, /settings/security-access, /settings/preferences, and /settings/notifications.
Profile
From the Profile tab you can:- Change your display name — validated inline (3–30 characters), with a “saved” / “unsaved changes” indicator so you always know whether an edit has actually been persisted
- Upload a new profile photo, or reset back to the default avatar
There’s still no way to change your email address through the app. Name, avatar, and password are all self-service now; email is not.
Security and access
From the Security & access tab you can:- Change your password, with live strength-meter feedback as you type
- View every session currently signed in to your account — IP address, browser user-agent string, and when it was last active — and revoke any one of them individually, or revoke every session except the one you’re currently using
- Choose how long a session can stay idle before it’s forced to sign in again: 1 hour, 8 hours, 24 hours, or 7 days. This is enforced server-side — once your last recorded activity is older than your chosen window, the next request signs you out automatically, regardless of what the client does
- Permanently delete your account — the confirmation modal requires typing
DELETEbefore the button activates, since this can’t be undone
