No OTP login
Most messengers prove who you are with an SMS or email one-time password. That leaks your phone or inbox, ties login to carriers, and creates phishing targets.
Buzzio signs you in with your Buzzio ID and 12-word seed phrase instead. No OTP loop.
How login works
- Create an account once on your device (Buzzio ID + seed).
- Later, open Buzzio and choose restore / sign in.
- Enter Buzzio ID + the same 12 words.
- Keys derive on-device. Buzzio never receives the seed.
Why this is different
| Typical messenger | Buzzio |
|---|---|
| SMS / email OTP | Buzzio ID + seed |
| Carrier or inbox involved | No OTP channel |
| Staff can often help reset | Staff cannot rebuild your phrase |
Trade-off
Losing the seed means you cannot reset through Buzzio support. That is intentional non-custodial design. Keep an offline copy and use encrypted backup for history.
