(It's important to setup encryption through the privacy settings of your account. This is so you can still decrypt your chats on other devices you login with.) (This process is similar to the web version as well. But the web version is already configured for beast chat, so you can ignore the process on changing the server name.)

An email/phone number is NOT required.
To get password resets; please contact me. Subject line "Password reset"
Mobile App (Since we use token sign ups, the mobile app may not work, you would have to access it through a browser as the first time sign up. After that, you can login through the app.) If you're unable, contact me and I can set up a username for you.

Then open up and create a username if you haven't created one already for the chat.
