Getting Started
This section describes how to create a Genymotion SaaS account, sign in, start a plan, and quickly start a virtual device.
Create an account
- Even if you are already using Genymotion Device image (PaaS) or Genymotion Desktop, you still have to create an account with your existing email address.
- Temporary email providers are not allowed for registration.
- Email aliases are prohibited.
- Fill the signup form at https://cloud.geny.io/signup to create a Cloud account for Genymotion SaaS.
- If you have a Gmail or Github account, you can use Single Sign-On (SSO) to create the account.
- The datacenter location defines where you want your virtual devices hosts to be. Make sure to pick the nearest location.
- You can also change the datacenter location after registration; in the top navigation bar or in the Administration interface.
- Single Sign-On (SSO) is an option for account creation. You will be redirected to the account creation confirmation page.

Log in
