Intertwined runs in your web browser, so there's nothing to download. You log in the same way on a Chromebook, a laptop, a tablet or a phone. This article covers how to log in, which name to use, how long you stay signed in, and how to log out on a shared computer.
Log in
Go to app.intertwinedfinance.com/login. You'll see a page that says Welcome back!
In Email or username, type your username or the email you signed up with. Either one works.
In Password, type your password. Click the eye icon if you want to check what you typed.
Click Log in. The button says "Signing in..." for a moment.
Your dashboard opens. If you were sent to the login page from somewhere else in Intertwined, you go back to that page instead.
Username or email: which one do I use?
It depends on how your account was made.
You signed up yourself with a class code. Use the username or the email you typed on the sign-up form, plus the password you chose.
Your teacher made your account. Your teacher gave you a username (something like Apple01 or your name) and a password. Type them exactly as your teacher wrote them. Use the username, not your own email, because these accounts aren't connected to your email.
Capital letters don't matter in your username or email, but they do matter in your password. "Tape-139" and "tape-139" are different passwords.
How long you stay signed in
Once you log in, you stay signed in on that browser for a few days, even if you close the tab or the whole browser. After a few days, Intertwined asks you to log in again. This can happen in the middle of something. Log in again, and you'll land back on the page you were on.
Going to app.intertwinedfinance.com always shows the login page, even when you're still signed in. To skip it, bookmark app.intertwinedfinance.com/dashboard instead. If you're signed in, it opens your dashboard. If not, it asks you to log in first.
Log out (especially on shared computers)
Because you stay signed in after closing the browser, the next person on a shared or library computer could open your account. Always log out when you're done on a computer that isn't yours.
At the bottom of the menu on the left, click your name.
Your My profile page opens.
Find Log out ("Sign out of this device") and click the Log out button.
You're taken back to the login page.
Logging out on one device doesn't log you out anywhere else. You can be signed in on your Chromebook and your phone at the same time.
Tips
On a shared computer, say no when the browser offers to save your password.
A private or incognito window is a good choice on a borrowed computer. Closing the window signs you out.
Phones sometimes add a space after a word they autocomplete. A space at the end of your username stops you from logging in, so delete it.
Keep your username and password somewhere safe, like a notes app or a card in your binder.
Common questions
Is there a "Sign in with Google" button?
No. Log in with your Intertwined username or email and your password.
I forgot my password.
Click Forgot password? above the password box. See Forgot your password? If your teacher made your account, ask your teacher instead.
I forgot my username.
If you signed up yourself, try logging in with your email instead. If your teacher made your account, ask your teacher for your username.
The dashboard shows someone else's name.
The last person on that computer didn't log out. Open their profile from the bottom of the menu, click Log out, then log in as yourself.
I see an error when I log in.
Each login message means something different. See I can't log in for what each one means and how to fix it.
