The comparison table, the landing FAQ and the messages page (English and Spanish) said signup takes a username and an email address. On a shared-account server, which the default relay is, both apps leave the email field out entirely (iOS SignUpView, Android MainActivity). Only a relay that keeps its own accounts asks for one.

  • comparison.leaf, es/comparison.leaf: the "no phone number" cell.
  • landing.leaf, es/landing.leaf: the "Do I need a phone number?" answer.
  • messages.leaf, es/messages.leaf: the "No phone number" card.

Not changed: privacy.leaf and metadata.leaf (both languages) still describe an account as holding an email address. They are legal text, so they are left for the owner.

The Spanish wording should be checked by a native speaker.

Copy only; no logic changes.
