# Create an OnStation Account
## Setting up your OnStation account takes just a few minutes, whether you're joining an existing organization or trying OnStation for the first time. Here's the full walkthrough, from downloading the app to getting verified and licensed.
**Step 1: Download the app and open it**
To learn How To Download the OnStation app click [here](https://help.onstationapp.com/knowledge/download?hsLang=en).
Once installed, open the app. You'll land on the login screen.
*Tap Create Account below the Send Login Code button to start signing up.*
Tap **Create Account** to begin.
**Step 2: Enter your name and job title**
*Fill in your name and job title, then tap Next.*
Enter your first name, last name, and job title (optional), then tap **Next**.
**Step 3: Enter your work email and phone number**
*Add your work email and mobile number, then tap Next.*
Enter your work email address and cell phone number, then tap **Next**.
**Step 4: Set your preferences and agree to the terms**
*Choose your notification preferences and agree to the Terms of Service before*
*tapping Sign Up.*
Let us know how you heard about OnStation, choose whether you'd like email/app notifications and SMS/text messages, and agree to the OnStation Terms of Service.
Tap **Sign Up** to create your account.
**Step 5: Select your organization**
*Search for your organization by name. DOT results and other agencies appear as you type.*
Search for your organization by name — try your DOT, agency, or company name.
Don't see your organization in search? Not sure what to search? Check **Suggested for You** — it may already be listed.
*Tap your organization to select it — you'll see a checkmark and confirmation — then tap Confirm Selection.*
Once you find your organization, tap it to select it, then tap **Confirm Selection**.
Can't find your organization? Tap **Can't find your organization?** on this screen, or tap **Skip for now** to continue without one — you can add an organization later from Settings.
**Step 6: Verify your email**
*We'll send a verification link to the email you signed up with. This may take a minute to arrive.*
After confirming your organization, check your email for a verification link and click it to verify your account. If you don't see it, tap **Resend Email** once the timer runs out.
*If you choose Verify Later, you'll see this warning — you can still verify anytime from Settings.*
**What you'll see before you're verified or approved**
*Until you're verified and approved, you'll see "No Organization" here — the Nearby tab still shows public projects near you.*
Until your email is verified — and, depending on your organization's process, until an org admin confirms you — you'll see **No Organization** at the top of the app.
**Checking your verification and organization status**
*Settings shows your verification status and any pending organization requests. Tap Verify Email if you still need to confirm your address.*
You can check your verification status and any pending organization requests anytime from Settings.
**Licensing after sign-up**
Once you sign up and access a project, you're automatically assigned a **7-day trial license** so you can start exploring OnStation right away. After the trial ends, you'll need to contact an admin at your organization to be assigned a full license.
