# Set up Affinidi Vault

> Set up your Affinidi Vault and developer tools to get started.

Let’s get you started with Affinidi Trust Network.

Before you begin integrating with our products and developer tools, you have to set up [Affinidi Vault](/products/affinidi-elements/affinidi-vault.md). We use the Affinidi Login to authenticate developers and grant access to our products and services with Affinidi Vault as the identity provider.

## Set up Affinidi Vault

Affinidi Vault provides a [Web Vault](https://vault.affinidi.com) and Mobile Vault (for [Android](https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.affinidi.vault&pcampaignid=web_share)) version to quickly onboard users into the Affinidi Trust Network. Both applications store the data securely on the local storage of your device (edge).

Set up an Affinidi Vault account using the [Web Vault](https://vault.affinidi.com) or install the Mobile Vault (for [Android](https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.affinidi.vault&pcampaignid=web_share)).

The same setup steps for Mobile Vault.

- 
Click on Get started if you are creating a new account, or click on Restore from Backup if you have an existing backup of your Affinidi Vault. Provide the passphrase to secure your Affinidi Vault.

You have the option to enable Biometrics to unlock your Affinidi Vault easily instead of using passphrase.
