Disney Plus has brought new additions while collaborating with other OTT (over-the-top) media platforms. This is a result of crossing the 118 million subscriber mark in 2021 according to Statista.com. Additionally, after partnering with other companies, the platform became accessible from different accounts. Thus, you may end up sharing your password with family members or friends whenever you utilize services such as Disney+ that allow multiple profiles. If too many people have access to a Disney Plus account, keeping track of the current user can thwart your attempts to recover it.
Moreover, keeping track of numerous passwords is challenging. Yes, you can use management applications to save complex passwords, but that’s another account you must memorize the credentials for. Further, losing a password can have serious consequences on streaming services. Not only is there a chance of getting your account compromised, but also your private and payment information extracted. Thankfully, picking a new account password is simple. Also, you should always choose one unique to Disney+ to reduce the chances of unauthorized access. We’ll cover password reset methods first, then get into other procedures to recover your account for Disney Plus.
Resetting Forgotten Disney Plus Password
Unfortunately, if you forget your old password, you cannot access the streaming service. The easiest way to solve that problem is to reset your Disney Plus account password this way:
- Visit the Disney Plus website in your web browser.
- On the “Login” page, type in the email address associated with your Disney Plus account.
- Proceed to click Forgot Password, and you’ll receive a verification code to your email address.
- To get a new 6-digit code, go to your email service inbox. Check any other folders, including Spam, if you can’t find the code. If you don’t see anything there, click Resend for a new one.
- Enter this code in the field given on the “Forgot Password Page.”
- Now, type your new password. Make sure it’s a string of alphanumeric characters that isn’t used elsewhere.
- Click on Continue.
Change Password for Disney Plus Account
Changing your password regularly might aid in the prevention of account theft. This is especially true if you gave your credentials to friends or family, allowing them to use your Disney Plus account. If you can log in after using the method above, or are already signed in, but afraid to log out because you don’t remember the password, we have you covered. Here are two ways of changing the password for your Disney Plus account:
- Using a web browser: Visit “www.disneyplus.com” and log in to your account if you aren’t already. Now:
- Select Profile.
- Go to Account.
- Go to Account Password.
- Type your current and new password.
- Press Save.
- Utilizing the Disney Plus app: Launch the app and sign in. Then:
- Tap on user profile.
- Go to Account.
- Opt for the Change Password option.
- Type your current and new password.
- Finally, tap on Save.
Recover Disney Plus Account by Changing Your Email Address
If you feel that your Disney Plus account was compromised, you need to change the associated mail address. Most people use the same one for various online and offline services, making it easier for someone to break into your account. Therefore, you can minimize or prevent unauthorized login attempts by diversifying. Here’s what to do:
- Log in to your Disney+ Account via a browser.
- Go to Profile and select Account from the menu.
- Select Change Email.
- Type a new email and password and save the changes.
You can also hide your tracks if you don’t want to utilize an alternate or alias email address. Add the “+” character and a random phrase to the email address. Instead of [email protected], use info+iPho[email protected]. If your email program supports that functionality, you will continue to receive mail at the same address. For additional support, contact Disney+ Help Center.
