No Signup, By Design

Most apps start with a wall: enter your email, pick a password, verify your inbox, maybe hand over a phone number "for security." By the time you've actually used the product, you've already given it more information than the product itself.

We built Marble VPN to skip that wall entirely. Open the app, tap connect, you're protected. No account, no email, no password to forget.

Why we didn't build a login screen

An account is a database row. A database row is something that can be breached, subpoenaed, correlated, or simply forgotten about until it leaks. Every field you don't collect is a field that can never end up in a breach notification email.

For a privacy tool specifically, this matters more than usual. A VPN's entire job is to reduce what the internet knows about you — it would be strange to undo that by asking you to create a permanent, identifiable account just to turn it on.

If we never ask for it, we never have to protect it, lose it, or hand it over.

What this means in practice

• No email required. Nothing to verify, nothing to reset.
• No password. Nothing to leak, nothing to reuse across sites.
• Nothing tied to you. Your subscription is validated through Apple or Google's billing systems, not a Marble VPN account database.

The tradeoff, and why we made it anyway

Removing accounts does remove a few conveniences — there's no "sign in on a new device to restore settings" flow, for example. We think that's a fair trade. A settings sync feature is a nice-to-have. Not having your identity sitting in a database somewhere is the entire point.
