Downloading and setting up iOS app

3. Pressing one of the buttons will open https://nordaccount.com/ where you can log in to your Nord Account or sign up.
   
   
4. Once logged in, go back to the NordLocker application. If you were previously using NordLocker, you will be asked to enter your NordLocker Key.
   
   If this is your first time using the app, you will have to create NordLocker Key. This password will be used to unlock the app and access your lockers. After creating NordLockery Key, you will get a prompt to save your Recovery Key. This key is the only way to get back into your account if you lose your NordLockery Key. 
   
   You can also generate a new Recovery Key in the application. To get the new key, open Profile at the bottom and tap Reset recovery key. You will be asked to enter your NordLockery Key.
