We’ve all been there — you go to log into Spotify, and suddenly your password doesn’t work. Maybe you changed it months ago, or maybe it’s been reset without your knowledge. Either way, getting back into your account is quick and painless once you know the steps. In this guide, I’ll show you how to reset your Spotify password in just a few minutes.
Spotify’s password reset process works smoothly whether you’re using the desktop app, web browser, or mobile device.
Here’s what to do:
1. Go to the Spotify Password Reset Page
Open your browser and head to spotify.com/password-reset.
2. Enter Your Registered Email Address
Type in the email you used to create your Spotify account, then click Send.
3. Check Your Inbox
You’ll receive an email titled “Reset your password.” If you don’t see it within a few minutes, check your spam or junk folder.
4. Click the Reset Link
The link takes you to a secure page where you can set a new password.
5. Choose a Strong New Password
Make sure it’s unique — avoid using the same one you’ve used elsewhere.
6. Log In Again
Return to the Spotify app or website, sign in with your new password, and you’re good to go.
Pro Tips:
-
If you use Facebook or Apple to log in, you’ll need to reset your password through those platforms instead.
-
Consider enabling two-factor authentication for extra security (Spotify may expand this soon).
-
Password managers like Bitwarden or 1Password can help you avoid future lockouts.
Bonus:
If you suspect unauthorized access, check Account → Sign Out Everywhere after logging back in. This will log your account out of all devices instantly.
Resetting your password only takes a minute, but it’s one of the best ways to keep your streaming account secure. With a new password, you can get back to your playlists, podcasts, and favorite tunes in no time.
