Create a Telos account with Anchor
Anchor holds your Telos account on your phone or computer and signs you in to Telos apps.
- Paid in the app
A new Telos account costs a fee: an in-app purchase on iPhone and Android, or at create.anchor.link from a computer.

Each sign-in and each action waits for the device's buttons.
