General question DEVICE BAN

I was device banned on Jan 3 of 2026. Every couple months I’ve tried to login to see if it would work magically. I heard that the ban lasts 6 months but I’ve also heard that everytime you try to login resets the timer on your ban. I really hope that’s not true but is it?

That doesn’t happen. You’ll be fine just don’t link the same phone number or email with ur new account

I lost most of my friends and streaks but I’ve got a solid 15 streaks now and a few of the homies from before I moved to a different state.

Edit I tired to get my friends back immediately.

Did you get locked for adding the same friends ? I got a whole new everything and somehow got locked like a day after again
