This guide will help you if you are having trouble logging into your Milkshake account.

Try logging in with your Milkshake URL

Logging in with your Milkshake URL is only available in version 1.7.1 and higher. If you are on an older version, update or skip this section.

How do I sign in with my Milkshake URL?

  • Type your Milkshake URL in the ‘Your email / Milkshake URL’ field

  • Tap on the ‘Your password’ field

  • You will see a hint that will let you know what sign in method you used with this account.

  • Enter your password or click the ‘Continue with Apple/Google/Facebook’ option that matches your hint

What is my Milkshake URL?

Your Milkshake URL is the web address that you can use to visit your Milkshake site.

For example, our site is https://msha.ke/go.milkshake (feel free to pay us a visit 😉)

When you log in, you just need to enter the part of the address after the `msha.ke`

For example, we would enter, go.milkshake
