Frequently asked questions

Can I cancel a transfer after I've sent it? Yes, you can manage the transfer in the Users tab.

What if I made a mistake in my selections? You can review all your choices on the confirmation page before clicking Transfer. Once the transfer is sent, your selections cannot be changed but you can cancel the transfer and start over.

Can I transfer to someone who doesn't have a BRNKL account? Yes, you can enter any email address. They'll be guided through the account creation process when they accept the transfer.

Can I see the status of my transfer? Yes, go to Settings > Users and look under your name. You'll see the current status of any pending transfers.

What if the new owner never receives the email? Ask them to check their spam folder. The email comes from BRNKL and includes the device name in the subject line. If they still can't find it, you can send the invite again through the settings page under the Users tab

Can I have multiple transfers pending at once? No, you can only have one transfer in progress at a time per device.
