How To Reset TikTok Account Password

TikTok is a video-sharing app where people can create and upload their funny content and share their short video clips with the rest of the world.

So maybe you’ve been using this app for a while and forgot your password? Or did you recently change it and forget it again? Keep reading this article to learn how to change or reset your password.

Change the account password.

If you are still logged into your account, you can easily change your password by following these easy steps below:

  • Open the app and click on the “Me” icon (Profile option) in the bottom right corner.
  • Then tap the three lines icon in the top right corner. The Settings and privacy tab should open.
  • In the Account section, click the “Manage account” icon. It should appear first if you have one of the most recent versions of the app.

After that, choose “Password.”

  • Enter your current and the new password, click on “Confirm,” and you’re done!

You’re logged out of your account and can’t remember the password

  • If you cannot remember your password and created the account using your email or phone number, open your TikTok application, and click on the “Me” icon to open the login page.
  • Click on the option “Forgot password.” The app will ask you how you want your account to be recovered. Via email or phone number. Select the one you want.

-If you choose the email way, you’d need to type in an email for a recovery where they will send you a code to reset your password.

-In case you don’t receive an email from them, please check your spelling while typing an email and if the spelling is correct, check your email's spam folder. If there is no sign of it, do the steps again and type in your recovery email again.

-If you choose the phone number way, they’ll ask about your phone number, on which they can send a code to reset your password.

  • Once your phone number or email has been verified, you will be redirected to a new page where you can change or reset your password.
  • Just tap on save to reset your new password on your end, and you’re all done! Easy, right?

What do I do if you forgot your password and the email address you used to create a TikTok account is no longer active?

If you are having this issue, don’t worry about it. We can easily solve the problem that’s been troubling you!

There are two ways to solve the problem.

If you forgot or don’t have access to the email address connected to your account, a few options might resolve the issue.

  • Contact the contributor of the registered email address and see if they can recover your old email address.
  • Get in touch with the contributor and request them to forward your old email address to your other one.

The second way to solve this problem is to contact TikTok’s support. To do that, follow the steps down below:

  • Click on the “Me” icon (Profile) again in the bottom right corner of your application.
  • Once again, click on the three lines icon in the top right corner of your screen.
  • The Settings and privacy page should show up. Down at the “Support & about” card, click on “Report a Problem”.
  • The Feedback and help tab should show up and click on Account and Profile. Then click on the “Login” card and describe your problem after that “Other” card.
  • All that’s left to do is, wait until their staff sends a response to you, then you’ll get further instructions from them.

If you still cannot recover your account’s password after all of this, you might have to create a new email and a new TikTok account.

We assure you that if you have followed these steps correctly, you should be able to reset your password and recover your account easily and with no stress!
