Your password is the key to not only logging into your account, but also to changing your username, changing your email address and deleting a story. You can change it at any point or reset it if you’ve forgotten about it.

Here is some key information about passwords:

It must be between 6 and 20 characters long
You can use letters [a-z], numbers [0-9], or symbols like ^%$&
There is no way to view your password
Your password can be reset when you’re logged in or out of your account
Do not share your password with anyone; keep your account secure!
Please note: You can only reset your password with the email address linked to your account; the password reset email can’t be sent to any other email. This means that if you created your account with a false email address, you won't be able to reset your password!

If you don’t know or don’t have access to the linked email address, please see this guide: Forgot Email?
