Solution 2: Try Alternative Login Methods
If your email/password login isn't working, try these alternative methods:
Sign in with Google
If you have a Google account associated with your CENTR account:
- Open the CENTR app
- On the login screen, tap "Sign in with Google" or "Continue with Google"
- Select your Google account
- Grant permissions if prompted
Sign in with Apple
If you have an Apple account associated with your CENTR account:
- Open the CENTR app
- On the login screen, tap "Sign in with Apple"
- Authenticate with Face ID, Touch ID, or your Apple ID password
- Grant permissions if prompted
Solution 3: Use Forgot Password (In the App)
Important: Use the "Forgot Password" option WITHIN the app, not on the website.
- Open the CENTR app
- On the login screen, tap "Forgot Password"
- Enter your email address
- Check your email for the password reset link
- Create a new password
- Return to the app and sign in with your email and new password
Why in the app? The v8.0 update changed login systems. Resetting your password through the app ensures it works with the new system.
Solution 4: Delete and Reinstall the App
Reinstalling gives you the latest login flow.
Important: Your data is saved in the cloud. Reinstalling won't delete your workout history or subscription.
iPhone:
- Delete the CENTR app completely
- Restart your iPhone
- Open the App Store and search for "CENTR"
- Install the latest version
- Open the app
- Try signing in with email and password
- If that doesn't work, try "Sign in with Google" or "Sign in with Apple"
Android:
- Uninstall the CENTR app completely
- Restart your Android device
- Open Google Play Store and search for "CENTR"
- Install the latest version
- Open the app
- Try signing in with email and password
- If that doesn't work, try "Continue with Google"
Solution 5: Verify Your Email Address
Make sure you're using the correct email:
- Check for typos in your email address
- Verify you're using the right domain (.com vs .net, gmail.com vs googlemail.com)
- Try any alternative email addresses you may have used
