Additional FAQs
How do I reset my Discord password without a phone?
You can still reset your Discord password using your email address when you haven’t linked a phone number to your account. Here’s how to do so via your mobile device or computer:
1. Open the Discord app and select Login.
2. Enter the email address used to sign up, then click the Forgot your password link.
3. Sign in to your email to check for your password reset email sent from Discord.
4. Open the email and tap the Reset Password button.
5. Enter your new Discord password, then select Change Password to save it.
Can you make a new Discord account with the same email after deletion?
Yes, you can. However, during the first 30 days of account deletion, the username will be replaced with “Deleted User,” and your profile picture will be removed. During those 30 days, you can log in using your email and password to recover your account, then your username and profile picture will be restored.
Recovering Discord
If you’ve forgotten your password and don’t have access to a linked email or phone number, you’ll need Discord’s assistance to recover it.
Instead of using the “Forgot Password” feature, you can contact Discord Support directly to request a password reset. Once you provide an email address you have access to, submit the request, then wait up to three days for the reset password link to be sent. From there, you can change your password and sign in to access your Discord account as usual.
