Changing or resetting your password
Change it in Settings when you know it, or reset it by email when you don't — and what each one does to your sessions.

Change it (you know your current password)
- Go to Settings.
- Enter your current password, then a new one between 8 and 200 characters.
- Save. You stay signed in here, and every other session is signed out.
Reset it (you've forgotten it)
- Go to Forgot password and enter your account's email address.
- We email you a reset link. It works once and expires after 1 hour. Asking for a new link cancels any older ones.
- Choose a new password. Every session is signed out, so sign in again with the new password.
We always say a reset email is on its way, whether or not that address has an account — so the form can't be used to find out who's signed up. If nothing arrives within a few minutes, check your spam folder, and make sure you used the address you signed up with.
Note
Too many reset requests from one network in a short time are paused for a minute. If you've been trying repeatedly, wait a moment before asking again.
"This reset link is invalid or has expired"
The link has already been used, is more than an hour old, or was replaced by a newer one. Request a new link.
