How to Use Interactive Apps
Interactive apps work a little differently from traditional digital downloads. Instead of receiving a file, you're unlocking access to a live tool that you can return to anytime.
This guide walks you through exactly how access works and how to start using your app.
Purchase the App
When you purchase an interactive app, your access is tied to your customer account, not a downloadable file.
This allows you to:
- Return to the app anytime
- Receive updates automatically
- Keep access secure and personalised
After checkout, your purchase is confirmed and linked to the email address you used during payment.
Log In to Your Account
Interactive apps require you to be logged in to verify access.
This is intentional and important.
Logging in allows the system to:
- Confirm you've unlocked the app
- Show only the tools you own
- Protect paid tools from public access
Make sure you log in using the same email address you used at checkout.
Access Your App
Once logged in, you can access your app in one of two ways:
Direct Access
You will receive the link in a PDF via your email and my orders page that will take you straight to the app you purchased.
My Apps Page
This is your personal dashboard showing all interactive apps you've unlocked in one place. Visit My Apps →
If you ever feel unsure where to go, start with the My Apps page.
Why You Might See an "Access Required" Message
If you visit an app page and see a message asking you to log in or unlock access, it usually means:
- You're not logged in yet
- You're logged into a different email
- You haven't unlocked that specific app
Logging in resolves most access issues immediately.
How Interactive Apps Typically Work
Each app is designed with a specific purpose, but many follow a similar flow. For example, with a prompt-based or option-driven app, you may:
Select your options
Choose styles, themes, formats, or preferences.
Generate your result
The app creates output based on your selections.
Use the result where you need it
Copy, adapt, or apply the output inside your preferred tool or workflow.
Some apps generate content, others guide decisions, and some help organise or plan — the exact experience depends on the app.
Important Notes About App Access
Apps are not one-time downloads
Access is tied to your account, not your device
You can return as often as you like after logging in
Updates may be added over time without re-purchasing
Need Help?
If an app doesn't load as expected or you're unsure how to start, support is available.
Access should feel smooth, not frustrating.
Pro Tip
Bookmark your My Apps page once logged in — it becomes your home base for every interactive tool you unlock.
