🔧 Fix this

Ideas a builder, maker or community group could start on:

  1. Implement phone-number-only account registration for users without email access.
  2. Allow account creation using alternative identifiers like social media or third-party authentication services.
  3. Provide an in-app 'no email' support flow to help users bypass the requirement or set up a temporary alias.
