❓ What is FastGhostID Pro?
Pro unlocks on this device immediately. Account syncing and cross-device functionality
are planned for a future update. Your support helps us build the infrastructure needed
for true cloud sync!
❓ How do I get the confirmation code?
When you use a disposable email, confirmation emails are sent to the email provider’s
inbox, not to this app.
Here’s how it works:
- Create an identity in the app
- Use the generated email to sign up on a website
- Click “Open Inbox (provider site)” on the identity card
- The email provider’s inbox will open in a new tab
- Wait for the confirmation email and copy the code or link
- Paste it back into the website you’re signing up for
That’s it.
❓ What happens if I close the tab or restart my device?
Closing a tab or restarting your device does not delete your identities. Your saved identities and settings are stored locally in your browser and will be available when you reopen the app.
❓ What happens if I clear my browser data or uninstall the app?
If you clear your browser/site data or uninstall the PWA, all local data is deleted — identities, passwords, and Pro unlocks. This cannot be undone unless you previously exported a backup file.
Tip: If you plan to clear data or switch devices, export your identities first (Settings → Export) and import them on the new device.
❓ I paid for Pro — will I lose it if I clear my browser or switch devices?
Possibly. Right now Pro is unlocked on this device only. If you clear your browser data or switch devices, your Pro unlock will be removed. We recommend exporting your data and keeping a receipt.
We’re planning a future account/sync option to carry Pro across devices — you’ll be notified if/when that’s available.
❓ What about private / incognito mode?
Don’t use the app in private/incognito mode if you want your identities to persist. Private windows typically delete all site data when closed.
❓ How do I back up my identities?
Use Settings → Export to download a local JSON/CSV file with your saved identities. Keep this file safe — anyone who has it can read your credentials. To restore, use Settings → Import.
Important to know:
- This app does not receive or store emails
- Confirmation codes are handled entirely by the email provider
- Some emails may expire or disappear depending on the provider
❓ Why didn’t my email arrive?
This can happen for a few reasons:
- The website blocks disposable email domains
- The email provider is delayed or temporarily unavailable
- The message was filtered or expired by the provider
- The email address was typed incorrectly
What you can do:
- Wait 30–60 seconds and refresh the inbox
- Try a different provider or domain
- Use another temporary identity
❓ Can I resend the confirmation email?
Yes — resend it directly from the website you’re signing up for.
This app does not control or deliver emails, so resending must be done from the original
site.
❓ Do you store my emails or confirmation codes?
No.
This app:
- Does not receive emails
- Does not read inboxes
- Does not store confirmation codes
All emails are handled by the third-party provider you choose.
❓ How long do temporary emails last?
It depends on the provider.
Some disposable emails:
- Expire after minutes or hours
- Are deleted when the inbox is inactive
- Can disappear without notice
If you need long-term access, switch the account to your real email and mark the identity
as Archived / Converted.
❓ What does “Temporary” mean?
Temporary identities are meant for:
- One-time signups
- Trials
- Testing websites
- Avoiding spam
They may expire or be deleted automatically. Do not use them for important or
long-term accounts.
❓ What does “Archived / Converted” mean?
It means you:
- Have switched (or plan to switch) the account to your real email and password
- Want to keep the card as a reference
The app no longer treats it as temporary.
❓ Can I change the email or password later?
Yes — but only on the website you signed up for.
This app:
- Generates credentials
- Stores them locally for your reference
Account changes must be done on the original site.
❓ Is this a real email account?
No.
Disposable emails:
- Are shared domains
- Are not private accounts
- Are not suitable for password recovery or long-term use
They are designed for short-term access only.
🔐 Is this secure?
Your data:
- Is stored locally on your device
- Is not synced or uploaded
- Can be deleted at any time
However, disposable email providers are public services. Do not use them for
sensitive or personal accounts.
❓ Can other people see my emails?
Possibly.
Some disposable email providers use public inboxes or session-based access. Always assume
temporary emails are not private.
❓ Why do some websites block these emails?
Many websites block disposable email domains to prevent:
If a site blocks one provider, try another or use your real email.
❓ What happens if I delete an identity?
When you delete an identity:
- The email and password are removed from this app
- The inbox may still exist temporarily on the provider’s site
Deletion in the app does not control the provider’s inbox lifecycle.
❓ Can I recover a deleted identity?
No.
Once deleted, identities cannot be recovered. This is intentional to protect your
privacy.
❓ Why doesn’t this app show the inbox inside the app?
To keep things:
- Simple
- Private
- Local-only
Emails are handled directly by the provider’s website.
🔐 Important Disclaimer
FastGhostID does not host inboxes, deliver emails, or store messages. Disposable email
providers are third-party services with their own rules and limitations.
🧠 Tip
If you plan to keep an account long-term, switch the website to your real email and
password after signing up, then mark the identity as Archived /
Converted.
💾 What actually happens to data (plain language)
Closing a tab / closing the browser:
Nothing is lost. Your identities and Pro flag remain available when you reopen the app.
Refreshing the page / hard reload:
Nothing is lost. Local storage survives reloads.
Clearing browser/site data (or uninstalling the PWA):
This deletes everything. Your app data is removed from the device and cannot be recovered unless you exported a backup beforehand.
Switching devices or browsers:
Data does not move automatically. You must export from one and import on the other.
Private / Incognito mode:
Don’t use the app in incognito mode if you want your identities to persist. Private windows delete all site data when closed.
PWA install behavior (mobile & desktop):
Uninstalling the PWA will remove site data on some platforms.
Losing Pro status:
If you clear site data or switch devices, your Pro unlock will be gone. This is a limitation of local-only unlocks.
