Update login and security settings
Keep the information and authentication methods associated with your NEST account current so you don't lose access when an email address, password, or device changes.
### Review your account settings
Use your account and security settings to manage the login and security options currently available for your account.
The options shown may depend on the way your account was created and the authentication methods you use.
### Password access
If your account uses a password and you forget it, use the password-recovery option on the sign-in screen rather than creating another account.
Follow the recovery instructions sent through the available verification process.
### Authentication methods
When security methods are available to manage from your account, keep them updated as your devices change.
If you're replacing a phone, computer, authenticator, or other security method, make sure you still have a working way to access your account before removing the old one.
### Keep your account yours
Never provide another person with your password, authentication codes, recovery information, or access to an authentication method registered to your account.
If you believe your account credentials or authentication methods have been compromised, update your security information promptly.
