Reset password when Password forgotten

Is this possible? I can login by using the code I can get by mail. But when attempting to reset or change the PW I should enter the current PW which I have forgotten...

Hey @kivk , great question and you're not alone in running into this!

The key thing to know is that there are two separate flows — one for changing your password (which requires your current password) and one for resetting a forgotten password (which doesn't). It sounds like you're landing on the wrong one!

Here's what to do:

First, make sure you're fully logged out of Spotify on the website. If you go to the reset page while still logged in, it redirects you to the account change page — which is why it's asking for your current password. Click your name at the top and choose Log Out, then head back to the reset page.

Once you're logged out:

  1. Go to spotify.com/password-reset
  2. Enter the email address or username linked to your account
  3. Follow the instructions in the reset email Spotify sends you

No current password needed at all — just access to your email inbox. If you don't see the email, check your spam/junk folders or any filtered folders.

Since you mentioned you can already receive login codes by mail, you should be good to go. Hope that sorts it out! 🎧. Let me know if this helps as a solution!

I have unusual problem. So basicly i'm logged in on spotify on my Pc and i wanted to log in on my mobile app beacuse spotify glitched and i needed to redownload it. Unfortunately it logged me off and i don't really know to do i tried everything, i forgotten my password that was my only way to get into my account and my address email doesn't belong to me. I wanted to reset password and all but im not sure what to do im logged in on my PC but im scared if i will log off i will lose access completly, i just want to reset all of my personal informations as i saw this option once yet i dont see it no more. Also when i said i tried everything i also tried to connect my google account with it but spotify disalow me to do such acction. What to do in such situation?
