> Update your password from the Password section of the settings dialog, or from the Change Password screen after signing in with a temporary password.

You can update your password from two places: the Password section of the settings dialog, and the Change Password screen you land on after signing in with a temporary password.

## From the settings dialog

1. Press Cmd , (Ctrl , on Windows and Linux), or click your avatar and choose Settings.
2. Click Password in the left rail.
3. Enter your Current password.
4. Enter a New password (at least 8 characters) and confirm it.
5. Click Update password.

> **Note:** Your current password is verified before the new one is saved. If it does not match, you will see "Current password is incorrect". A new password shorter than 8 characters, or two fields that don't match, is rejected before anything is saved.

## Sign-in methods

The bottom of the Password section lists what this account can actually sign in with, so you can check your options without changing anything.

## If you signed in with Google

When Google is your only sign-in method, the Current password field is hidden and the button reads Set password. Setting one lets you also sign in with email and password.

## If you were given a temporary password

After signing in with a temporary password you are sent to /change-password. Enter a new password, confirm it, and click Set New Password. You are redirected to Home once it succeeds.

> **Warning:** Passwords must be at least 8 characters, and the two fields must match before the form will submit.
