Open Settings and Find Your Account

Start by opening the Spotify app on your phone or tablet. Tap the home icon at the bottom of the screen, then look for the gear icon in the top right corner — that is your Settings menu. Tap it.

Once you are in Settings, scroll down until you see "Account" listed as an option. Tap "Account" to open your account details page.

Navigate to Password Settings

Inside your Account section, you will see several options including your username, email, and subscription details. Look for the option labeled "Password" — it usually appears near the top of the list, sometimes under a "Security" heading depending on your phone's operating system.

Tap on "Password" to begin the change process. The app will ask you to confirm your identity before letting you proceed, which is a security measure to prevent someone else from changing your password if they gain access to your phone.

Enter Your Current Password

Spotify will prompt you to type in your current password first. This confirms that you are the account owner. Type it carefully — passwords are case-sensitive, meaning capital letters and lowercase letters are treated as different characters.

If you cannot remember your current password, tap "Forgot your password?" and Spotify will send you a reset link to your email address instead. You will need to complete that process before you can change it again through the app.

Create and Confirm Your New Password

After your current password is verified, you will see two blank fields: one for your new password and one to confirm it. Type your new password in the first field. Spotify requires passwords to be at least 8 characters long and to include both letters and numbers.

Type the same new password again in the confirmation field. Make sure both entries match exactly — if they do not, the app will show an error message and ask you to try again. A common mistake is typing it differently the second time, so read it back to yourself before tapping the button to save.

Save Your Changes

Once both password fields match and meet Spotify's requirements, tap the button to confirm the change — it is usually labeled "Save," "Update," or "Change Password" depending on your device. The app will process the change for a few seconds.

When the change is complete, you will see a confirmation message. Your new password is now active. You do not need to log out and back in on that device — Spotify keeps you signed in automatically.

What Happens on Your Other Devices

If you use Spotify on multiple devices — a computer, tablet, or another phone — you will remain signed in on all of them. Your new password only matters the next time you need to log in somewhere, such as if you sign out intentionally or if Spotify signs you out for security reasons.

If you want to sign out everywhere and force a fresh login with your new password on all devices, you can do that through the web version of Spotify at spotify.com. Log in, go to Account Settings, scroll to "Sign out everywhere," and click it. Then log back in on each device with your new password.

Frequently Asked Questions

What if I forgot my current password and cannot enter it?

Tap "Forgot your password?" when the app asks for your current password. Spotify will email you a reset link. Click that link, create a new password, and then you can change it again through the app if you want something different.

Why does Spotify keep asking me to log in after I changed my password?

This usually means Spotify signed you out on that device for a security update. straightforward log in again with your new password. If it keeps happening on the same device, try uninstalling and reinstalling the Spotify app, then log in fresh.

Can I change my password on the web instead of the app?

Yes. Go to spotify.com, log in, click your profile name in the top right, select "Account," then find "Change password" in the Security section. The process is nearly identical to the app version.

Do I need to change my password on every device I use Spotify on?

No. You only change your password once, in one place. All your devices will use that same new password the next time they need to log in. You do not have to update it separately on each phone or computer.

What if the password change button does not appear in my Settings?

Make sure you are fully logged in and that you have the latest version of the Spotify app installed. Check your phone's app store for updates. If you still cannot find it, try changing your password through the web version at spotify.com instead.
