Change your password

You need to be signed in and know your current password to change it here. If you have forgotten it, request a password reset.

  1. Open the sidebar's user menu and select User Settings. On a phone, open the sidebar from the page header first.
  2. Select Security & Privacy.
  3. Enter your Current Password.
  4. Enter a New Password, then enter it again in Confirm New Password.
  5. Select Update Password on desktop or Update password in the footer on a phone.

Wait for “Password updated.” The three password fields clear after a successful change. Use the new password the next time you log in; the old password no longer works.

Meet the password requirements​

Use 10–128 characters, with at least three of these four kinds of characters: uppercase letters, lowercase letters, numbers, and symbols. Do not put spaces at the beginning or end. The new password and confirmation must match.

Check the requirements shown below the fields. On desktop, the update button stays disabled until the new password and confirmation meet them. On a phone, a mismatch shows “New passwords do not match.” when you try to save.

If the update fails​

An incorrect current password does not change your account password. Check your current password and try again. If an error message covers the phone's footer, let it close before selecting Update password again.

If you cannot complete the change, contact support with the message shown. Never send your password to support.
