You need the phone number you registered your Snapchat account with or your email address in order to reset your password. However, you can try contacting the platform's technical support, and they may be able to assist you but this is unlikely. Therefore, the best way to reset your Snapchat password is by using your email or phone number. You can also check the saved passwords on your phone or computer, as most systems now hold onto passwords.
**Resetting the Password via Phone Number:**
You must use the same phone number that you registered with and you should have access to this number because Snapchat sends a confirmation message to your phone. To reset your password, follow these steps: Go to the Snapchat app or website, then click on "Forgot Password." After that, a message will appear asking if you want to reset your password via phone or email. When you select the phone option, the app will ask for the registered phone number. After entering the phone number and pressing continue, the following message will appear. Here you should choose between receiving a text message with a code or a phone call. It is preferable to use the text message because the phone call is in English and may not be clear. On the next page, the app will ask you to enter the six-digit code that you received on your phone; enter it and then set a new password.
**Resetting the Password via Email:**
You can reset your password via email by clicking on "Forgot Password," but instead of choosing the phone number, select the email option. After that, the app will ask you to enter the email you registered with the platform, then click the continue button. When you receive the email containing the password change link, click on it, and then the app will prompt you to re-enter the new password.
**Can I Recover My Password Without a Phone Number or Email?**
There is no clear or direct way to recover your password without a phone number or email. This is because Snapchat aims to secure user accounts by verifying identity. You may contact customer service staff who might be able to reset the password for you, but they most likely will refuse this request. Therefore, the best solution is to try to access your email or remember it by searching your inbox for a message from Snapchat, or to try recalling the phone number you registered with initially, as we all tend to remember our phone numbers easily.
