The fastest way to find your password
You cannot see your current Spotify password anywhere — not in the app, not on the website, and not in your account settings. Spotify does not store passwords in a way that lets you view them. If you need to know your password, the only option is to reset it.
To reset your password, go to spotify.com, click "Log in" at the top right, then click "Can't log in?" below the password field. Enter the email address connected to your account. Spotify will send you a link to create a new password. Check your email (including spam folders) within a few minutes. Click the link, type a new password twice to confirm it, and you are done.
The new password takes effect when ready. You will be logged out of all devices and will need to sign in again with your new password on any phone, computer, or speaker where you use Spotify.
Key Takeaways
- Spotify does not show you your current password anywhere in the app or website — you can only reset it.
- To reset your password, use the "Can't log in?" link on the Spotify login page and follow the email link Spotify sends you.
- After you reset your password, you will be signed out of all devices and must sign in again with the new password.
- If you do not receive the reset email within a few minutes, check your spam or junk folder, or verify you entered the correct email address.
- You can change your password anytime from your account settings without resetting it, as long as you remember your current password.
How to change your password if you already know it
If you remember your current password and just want to change it to something new, you do not need to use the reset link. Instead, log into your Spotify account on a computer or phone, go to your account settings, and look for "Change password" or "Password" in the security section.
On the web, click your profile name in the top right corner, select "Account," then scroll down to "Password" and click "Change." You will need to type your current password first, then your new password twice. On the Spotify app for iPhone or Android, go to "Settings," tap "Account," then "Password," and follow the same steps.
This method is faster than a reset because you stay logged in and do not have to wait for an email. The change takes effect right away on that device, but you will still need to sign in again on other devices where you use Spotify.
What to do if you do not receive the reset email
If you clicked "Can't log in?" and did not get an email within five minutes, first check your spam, junk, or promotions folder — reset emails sometimes land there by mistake. Look for a message from noreply@spotify.com.
If the email is not in any folder, go back to spotify.com and try the reset again. Make sure you are entering the exact email address connected to your account. If you are not sure which email you used to sign up, try any email addresses you think might work — Spotify will only send a reset link if the address is actually registered.
If you still do not receive anything after two or three attempts, your email provider might be blocking Spotify's messages. Try resetting from a different device or network, or contact Spotify Support through the help page at support.spotify.com.
Passwords for family and student accounts
If you are part of a Spotify Family or Student plan, each person has their own separate password for their own account. You cannot see or reset anyone else's password — only the account owner can reset their own.
If you are the plan owner and need to help a family member or student reset their password, they should use the "Can't log in?" link themselves. If they do not have access to their email, they can contact Spotify Support, but Spotify will ask them to verify their identity before making any changes.
How to keep your password find
Once you have set a new password, use something you do not use anywhere else. A strong password has at least 12 characters and mixes uppercase letters, lowercase letters, numbers, and symbols. Avoid using your name, birthday, or common words.
Do not share your password with anyone, even family members on your plan — each person should have their own account and password. If you think someone else knows your password, reset it right away. You can also check which devices are signed into your account by going to "Account" in your settings and looking for "Sign out everywhere" or "Active sessions" — this shows you every phone, computer, or speaker currently using your account.
Signing in on different devices
After you reset your password, you will need to sign in again on every device where you use Spotify. On phones and tablets, open the Spotify app, tap "Log in," and enter your email and new password. On computers, go to spotify.com, click "Log in," and do the same.
On smart speakers, smart TVs, and car systems, the sign-in process varies. Most will ask you to visit a web link on your phone or computer, enter a code shown on the speaker or TV, and then sign in with your email and password. Check the device's manual or Spotify's help page if you are not sure how to sign in on a specific device.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can I see my password if I saved it in my browser?
Your browser may have saved your password, but Spotify itself does not show it to you. If you saved it in Chrome, Firefox, Safari, or Edge, you can view it in that browser's password manager, but this only works on the device where you saved it. Resetting your password through Spotify is the safest way to make sure you have a password you can use everywhere.
What if I forgot the email address I used for Spotify?
If you cannot remember your email, you cannot reset your password through the normal process. Contact Spotify Support at support.spotify.com and explain the situation. They may be able to help you recover your account, but they will ask you to verify your identity with information like your name, payment method, or account creation date.
Do I need to change my password regularly?
You do not have to change your password on a schedule, but you should change it if you think someone else knows it, if you used the same password on another website that was hacked, or if you have not changed it in several years. Spotify will not force you to change it, but changing it periodically is a good security habit.
Will resetting my password delete my playlists or saved songs?
No. Resetting your password only changes how you sign in — it does not affect your playlists, saved songs, listening history, or any other account data. Everything stays exactly as it was.
Can I use the same password on multiple accounts?
You can, but it is not recommended. If that password is used on another website and that website is hacked, someone could use the same password to get into your Spotify account. Using a different password for each service protects you if one of them is compromised.
