How to Change Your Gmail Password
Here’s how to change your Gmail password using a computer and a web browser.
From your Gmail inbox screen, select Settings (gear icon). Select See all settings. Select the Accounts and Import tab. Next to the Change account settings section, select Change password. Enter your current password to verify your identity, then select Next. Enter and confirm your new password, then select Change Password. Make sure you choose a secure, hack-proof password. If you pick an ultra-strong password, store it in a free password manager so that you never lose it.
Additional Steps to Secure Your Gmail Account
If you’ve been a victim of password theft or are worried that someone else might be using your Gmail account that you’ve left logged in on a public computer, consider these tips:
Sign out of all Gmail sessions remotely and prevent lost or stolen devices from accessing your Google account. Verify that you recognize all services and people accessing your Gmail account. Enable Gmail 2-step authentication for additional protection.
