How to Change Your Facebook šŸ”‘ Password

Published by External Source on

Most people use terrible passwords. If you’re one of them, you should change all your important passwords to something a lot more secure—and, that includes Facebook.

Here’s how to change your Facebook password.

Change Your Facebook Password on the Web

Start by logging into theĀ Facebook websiteĀ and then select the drop-down arrow in the top-right corner and choose ā€œSettings & Privacy.ā€

Click the ā€œSettingsā€ option from the following menu.

Now select ā€œSecurity and Loginā€ from the left sidebar and then click ā€œChange Passwordā€ from the Login section.

Enter your current password and your new password twice. If it’s too short, weak, or the confirmation doesn’t match, Facebook will notify you.

When you’ve got a strong password, click ā€œSave Changes.ā€ You’ll be asked if you want to stay logged in on all your other devices. If you think your account has been hacked, select ā€œLog Out of Other Devices.ā€ Otherwise, you’re okay to go with ā€œStay Logged In.ā€

And that’s it, your Facebook password is changed.


Change Your Facebook Password on iPhone, iPad, or Android

Open the Facebook app on your iPhone, iPad, or Android and then select the three-line ā€œMenuā€ button in the bottom-right (on the iPhone and iPad) or top-right (on Android) corner. From there, expand the ā€œSettings & Privacyā€ option and tap ā€œSettings.ā€

Choose the ā€œPassword and Securityā€ from the Account section.

Scroll down to the Login section and tap ā€œChange Password.ā€

Enter your current password and then your new password twice. Click ā€œUpdate Passwordā€ and your new Facebook password will be saved.
