Not sure which e-mail account I used when setting up LegacyApp
Not sure which email you used?
If you can't remember which email address you set up LegacyApp with, you can find it in a minute.
How to find your email
Search your main email accounts for a message from notify@legacy.app. If you find emails from that address, that's the account you used for LegacyApp.You don't need a password: just use the Magic Link
Once you know your email, you don't need a password to get back in. LegacyApp uses the secure Magic Link: you enter your email, and the app sends you a one-time link to sign in.
In short
Find your email by searching for messages from notify@legacy.app. Then enter that email, click the Magic Link we send you, and restore your notes from the "Backups" tab. You'll need your Encryption Key to restore - the app shows the hint you set earlier.
