How to Recover your Apple Account Password

If you ever forget your Apple Account password, you can reset it and regain access to your account. The easiest way to do so is with your iPhone or other trusted Apple device, one that’s already signed in to your Apple Account, so that Apple knows that it’s yours.

You can also reset your password on the web when you don’t have a trusted device is another way to regain access to your account.

1. Go to Settings, then tap your name.
2. Tap Sign-In & Security, then select Change Password.
