After creating your ID

Password tips

Make your password strong and secure by following our AT&T password requirements.
Save your password on your phone if you want to use your fingerprint to sign in to the myAT&T app.²

Primary or secondary online access

Your user ID gives you online access to one or more accounts. You have primary access if the account is in your name.
You have secondary online access if your name isn’t on the bill. This means you can co-manage the account online.
Your user ID may have primary access to some accounts and secondary access to others. Here's info on how to manage online access for your ID or accounts.

Wireless customers

Sync your phone with a compatible wearable using NumberSync for wearables.¹
Make sure your wireless service is active before you add the account to your ID.
