Signing In
From the Welcome screen, tap "Sign In" to reach the sign-in form. As with registration, a Google Sign-In button sits at the top of the screen for anyone who'd rather authenticate with an existing Google account and skip typing entirely — one tap, and Google handles the rest.
If you're signing in the traditional way, two labeled fields await you: "Email," prompting you to enter your email address, and "Password," prompting you to enter your password. There's no need to guess where you are on the form — your screen reader announces each field by name as you move through it. Leaving either field blank and tapping "Sign In" produces a spoken reminder to fill in both before continuing. Once you submit valid details, a brief loading indicator announces "Signing you in..." while the app verifies your credentials, and you're carried straight to your personalized Home screen.
Should you have chosen "Sign in with Browser" back on the Welcome screen instead, you're handed off to your device's browser to complete a Google-style login there. When that finishes, the app briefly shows a "Signing you in..." screen while it verifies your credential in the background, then drops you into Home automatically — no need to do anything further. If that handoff fails for any reason, the app tells you plainly that something went wrong and returns you to the Welcome screen to try again.
Forgotten your password? A "Forgot Password?" link sits on both the Sign In and Sign Up screens. Tapping it opens a simple recovery form: enter the email address associated with your account in the "Email Address" field and tap "Reset Password." The app confirms with a clear message that a reset link has been emailed to you, and asks you to check your inbox. Following the link in that email lets you choose a new password, after which you can return to Tech Assistant and sign in as usual. If you mistype or forget your email while on the recovery screen, a spoken reminder prompts you before anything is sent, and a "Sign In" link is always nearby if you remember your password partway through and want to abandon recovery.
