Change Your Password on the Spotify Website

The fastest way to change your Spotify password is through the web version on a computer or phone browser. Go to spotify.com and log in with your current email and password. Once you are logged in, click your profile name in the top right corner — it will show your account name or a circular profile picture — and select Account from the dropdown menu.

You will land on your Account Overview page. Look for the Change password button, usually in the left sidebar under "Account" or in the main content area under a "Password" section. Click it. Spotify will ask you to enter your current password first, then type your new password twice to confirm it matches. Your new password must be at least 8 characters long. Click Set password or Save when you are done.

You will see a confirmation message. You are now logged out of all your devices. The next time you open Spotify on your phone, computer, or other device, you will need to enter your new password to log back in.

Change Your Password in the Spotify Mobile App

You can also change your password directly in the Spotify app on iPhone or Android. Open Spotify and tap the Home icon at the bottom (usually a house symbol). In the top right corner, tap your profile picture or the gear icon to open Settings.

Scroll down until you see Account or Password. Tap it. You may be asked to log in again with your current password for security. After you confirm your identity, enter your new password twice and tap Save or Confirm. The app will log you out of all devices, just as the website does.

If you do not see a password option in Settings, your account may be linked to Facebook, Google, or Apple ID instead of a Spotify password. See the section below on linked accounts.

Key Takeaways

  • The web version at spotify.com is the most reliable way to change your password — go to your profile name, select Account, and click Change password.
  • You can also change your password in the mobile app by opening Settings, tapping Account, and entering your new password twice.
  • Your new password must be at least 8 characters long and will log you out of all devices when ready.
  • If your account is linked to Facebook, Google, or Apple ID, you change the password through that service instead, not through Spotify.
  • After you change your password, you will need to log back in on each device you use — this usually takes less than a minute.

What to Do If Your Account Uses Facebook, Google, or Apple Sign-In

If you created your Spotify account by clicking "Sign in with Facebook," "Sign in with Google," or "Sign in with Apple," you do not have a Spotify password to change. Instead, your login is controlled by that other service. To change how you log in, you have two options.

The first option is to change the password on the service itself — Facebook, Google, or Apple — and your Spotify login will update automatically. The second option is to set up a Spotify password so you can log in directly without going through that service. Go to spotify.com, log in with your linked account, click your profile name, select Account, and look for Set a password or Create a password. Once you set one, you can log in with either your email and new password or your linked account.

What Happens When You Change Your Password

When you change your Spotify password, you are when ready logged out of every device where you were signed in — your phone, computer, tablet, smart speaker, car, or any other device. This is a security measure to protect your account. You will need to enter your new password the next time you open Spotify on each device.

If you share your Spotify account with family members or friends, they will also be logged out and will need the new password to log back in. If you use Spotify Family, each family member has their own login, so changing your password does not affect theirs — only your own devices will be logged out.

If You Forgot Your Current Password

If you cannot remember your current password, you cannot use the change password option because Spotify asks you to enter it first. Instead, go to spotify.com and click Log in. Below the login fields, click Can't log in? or Forgot your password? Spotify will ask for your email address and send you a password reset link.

Check your email inbox — the message usually arrives within a few minutes. Click the link in the email. It will take you to a page where you can create a new password. Enter your new password twice and click Save or Reset password. You can then log in with your email and new password on any device.

Troubleshooting Password Changes That Did Not Work

If you clicked Save or Confirm but did not see a success message, the password may not have changed. Try again and make sure your new password is at least 8 characters long and does not contain spaces at the beginning or end. If you see an error message, take a screenshot of it — it will help Spotify support understand what went wrong.

If you changed your password but still cannot log in on a device, try logging out completely and logging back in. On the mobile app, go to Settings, scroll to the bottom, and tap Log out. On a computer, click your profile name and select Log out. Then open Spotify again and enter your email and new password. If you still have trouble, restart the device — sometimes the app needs a fresh start to recognize the new password.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will changing my password log me out of Spotify on all my devices?

Yes. Changing your password logs you out everywhere when ready for security. You will need to log back in on your phone, computer, and any other device where you use Spotify. This usually takes less than a minute per device.

Can I change my password if I use Spotify Family?

Yes. Each family member has their own login and password. Changing yours only logs you out of your own devices, not anyone else's. Other family members will not be affected.

How long does it take for the password change to take effect?

The change is when ready. You are logged out when ready, and you can log back in with your new password right away. There is no waiting period.

What if I change my password but forget it right away?

Click Can't log in? on the Spotify login page and follow the password reset process. Spotify will send you a link to create a new password. You can reset your password as many times as you need.

Do I need to change my password if I think someone else has access to my account?

Yes, change it when ready using the steps above. After you change your password, you will be logged out everywhere, which removes anyone else's access. If you see activity you do not recognize, you can also check your login history on the Account page to see where and when your account was accessed.
