It might be that you’re trying it in Safari’s private mode. It works in regular mode, but private mode blocks storage, so the app can’t function there. We should improve the error message to make that clearer.

That said, the app is currently designed for desktop use—mobile UX is still on our roadmap.

As for signup: it helps us track and bill users. Building our own auth system for local-first would’ve been a full project on its own. Until better options exist for authorization and billing in local-first apps, we’ll stick with a cloud signup flow.
