2. Choose how you sign in
When you first open Schuly, it asks two questions. You can change your answers later.
Which server?
Choose Schuly Cloud, the official server, unless you run your own. If you do, choose Self-hosted and enter its Backend URL. To run your own server, see Self-host Schuly.
Schuly account or Private mode?
| Schuly account | Private mode | |
|---|---|---|
| Sign in with | A Schuly account | Your school login only |
| Data updates | In the background | When you open the app |
| Notifications about new grades | Yes | No |
| Same data on all your devices | Yes | No |
| Your school data | Stored on the server | Stored only on your phone |
| Your school login | Encrypted on the server, or only a session, depending on your school | Stored only on your phone |
Choose a Schuly account if you want Schuly to stay up to date without opening it. Most people choose this.
Choose Private mode if you don't want your data stored on a server. Your login still passes through the Schuly server each time Schuly loads your data, but the server doesn't store it.
