How do I create an account/log in?

Modified on Wed, 17 Jul at 11:47 AM

To create a MAGICapp account, you can use your email OR one of our compatible institution logins (Cochrane ID, Google, or WHO).

1. Create an account

You can register for a free MAGICapp account in order to work within the app. To start, select "Create an account" on the MAGICapp home page.

You will be taken to a sign up page, where you can use any email to create a MAGICapp account. You can also log in using a third party account, via Cochrane, WHO, or Google. You can use your existing account information from those accounts to log into MAGICapp.

Please note that you need to create a highly secure password - once you fulfill each of the criteria below, a green check mark will appear next to it. Note: If the Register button isn't working for you, it might be that you haven't created a password that fulfills all the criteria, or that your passwords don't match.

Once you enter your information and click register, MAGICapp will ask you to verify your email.

From the link you will be taken back to MAGICapp and asked to proceed.

Finally, you will be verified, and you can use MAGICapp.

2. Log in

You can log in with your email and password on the left side, or using your third party account login (Cochrane, WHO, or Google) on the right side.

Using an institution login

Click the box with the institution name, and you will see a pop-up window with their login page. Enter your existing email and password from that institution, and you will be logged in.

Resetting your password

If you created an account with your email, click the "Forgot Password?" button on the login.
If you created an account with an institution login, click "Login with..." and go through their portal to reset your password. MAGICapp does not have your login information if you sign up with an institution account.
