Creating a MyFRITZ! account and setting it up in the FRITZ!Box

MyFRITZ! keeps you informed about the status of your FRITZ! products, available updates, and other news on a regular basis, and provides secure access to your FRITZ!Box via the internet. This way you can access the FRITZ!Box user interface with your smartphone, tablet or computer from anywhere in the world at any time:

Your personal data is stored exclusively in the FRITZ!Box at all times and is not transferred by AVM to MyFRITZ!Net or to any other service or provider.

To use MyFRITZ!, you only need to create a personal MyFRITZ! account and set it up in your FRITZ!Box. Please take note of the MyFRITZ! terms and conditions of use.
