Note
Your applications account page is designed and built to meet your exact requirements. The account page, and the information you supply to your users, is dependent on specific configurations.
What is the account page?
The account page enables users who have signed up for a plan to access and modify their subscription information. Design your Account page to help your users complete different administrative tasks related to their account. Including viewing and managing billing history and registered devices, managing profiles and parental lock settings, viewing bookmarked assets, or setting download preferences.
Let's take a look at some of the main capabilities of the account page across the different AXIS apps:
Getting to the account page:
The account page is available to users who have signed up for a plan. For signed up users, clicking the profile icon at the top right of the screen, next to the search takes users directly to their profile page.
Responsive web users can also hover over their profile icon and select the "My Account" link from the dropdown menu if configured in Presentation Manager.
For visitors (users who have not signed up for a plan), can select the Register button to sign up for a plan. Users who are not currently signed in can select Sign In to access their account information.
