Please note that if your 23andMe account was set up using a third party service (e.g., Google Sign-In or Sign in with Apple®), you will not be able to reset your password through the 23andMe website. If you used Google as the third party service to create or sign into your 23andMe Account, please visit the Google Account Recovery page for assistance in accessing your Google account. If you used Apple as the third party service to create or sign into your 23andMe account, please visit this Apple Support Page for assistance in accessing your Apple account.
If you do not receive the password reset email, we suggest the following:
- Check your spam and trash folders for emails from donotreply@23andme.com.
- Send an email to donotreply@23andme.com and then go through the password reset steps above.
- Check your email later. There may be a delay in sending or receiving this email. Typically customers will receive the email within a few minutes but in some cases it may take up to 24 hours.
- Make sure that you are checking the email account associated with your 23andMe email address, and make sure that the email address is able to send and receive emails.
