Suggested Path
- Confirm whether you are still on a signup path or already on an existing-account login path.
- Check the device environment, network stability and verification-code delivery before attempting repeated logins.
- If this is a new account, prepare the email, phone, identity documents and security method first.
- After the first login, enable 2FA, anti-phishing and device management before continuing.

FAQ
Why not go straight into buying after the download?
Because a weak device or verification setup can force rework in every later step.
Should I enable 2FA on the first login?
Yes. It is one of the highest-leverage protections you can add early.
Where should I go after this page?
Back to the download-entry guide, the signup-entry page or the full account security guide.
