Part 2. How to Reset Your Snapchat Password without Email or Phone Number

It is easy to reset Snapchat password using the associated email or phone number. However, if you don’t remember the email or phone number, or you can’t access to them, how do you reset your Snapchat password without email or phone number?

For security concerns, it is natural to verify that you are the owner of the account before making changes to your account, and it is difficult to reset your Snapchat password without your email or phone number.

As a matter of fact, this is a common issue for most people. In my point of view, you should try all the email address you have, and old phone numbers and see if you can get a recovery email or message to continue. Meanwhile, some users suggested that the email ID would help with the problem, and it is worth a try.

If that’s not working, you may try to contact the Snapchat support and see if they can come up with any advice. In addition, if you have logged your Snapchat account in your iPhone, you can find it via a third-party tool described in Part 4.

Part 3. What If Snapchat Password Reset Doesn’t Work?

Sometimes it is annoying to see the login error from Snapchat, such as “Could not connect” or “Fail to connect” even if it is the correct account and password. So, if the similar problems happen to you, you, the following methods may help:

Method 1: Check Your Network Connection

It requires network connection to login and use the Snapchat app in your device, so if the app shows a connection error or login fail error, it is likely that your device network connection is unstable. Check the current network connection and ensure it has internet access.

Method 2: Reset Network Settings

If your device has the internet connection and you still can’t login after password resetting, try resetting the network connection settings for your mobile phone.

For iOS device:

• 1. Go to the Settings app in your iPhone. Tap General.
• 2. Go to Reset > Reset Network Settings.
• 3. Confirm and reset.
• 4. After that, try to log in Snapchat and see if it works.

For Android device:

The Android device settings vary from brands to brands, so you may try something like this:

• 1. Go to Settings > General Management.
• 2. Click Reset or Reset Options, or something like that.
• 3. Tap something like Reset Network Settings.
• 4. After that, log in Snapchat and see if the password works.

Method 3: Reinstall Snapchat

If the above two methods didn’t work, the last option is to uninstall Snapchat, and then reinstall it to resolve the problem. All you need to do is to uninstall Snapchat from your device by deleting it, and then go to the App store or Google Play store, search Snapchat, and install again. Hopefully this will help reconnect to the Snapchat server.
