Didn't Receive the Reset Email?
If you didn't receive the password reset email:
- Check spam/junk folders - Sometimes emails get filtered
- Wait a few minutes - Email delivery can take up to 5 minutes
- Try again - Request another reset link
- Check the email address - Ensure you're using the correct email
- Contact support - If issues persist, email our support team
Account Locked?
After 5 failed login attempts, your account is temporarily locked for 15 minutes. This is a security measure to prevent brute-force attacks.
If you're locked out:
- Wait 15 minutes and try again
- Or reset your password immediately (this unlocks the account)
Two-Factor Authentication (2FA)
If you have 2FA enabled, you'll need to enter your authenticator code after resetting your password. If you've lost access to your authenticator:
- Use one of your recovery codes
- Contact support for manual verification
