In this Article, I would like to show you two ways to Recover Google account password. So also to other Google services that use the same password.
A Google account gives you access to many services
Among other things, Gmail, profile management in Google My Business, Google AdWords and even YouTube accounts - because Google also owns YouTube. If you have a phone with Google Android, you must also log in to your Google account to use it. One password for many services, it is very convenient, unfortunately, if we forget it, we have a big problem. I will show you two ways to recover your password.
1. The first way is to use the device on which we previously saved this password.
Internet browsers on phones and computers very often offer the option of saving passwords and often many people have the password saved in this way even without being aware of it. If you use several computers or telephones - check each of them, maybe the password was saved in one of the devices.
I will now show you how to check such a password on the example of my computer and phone using the Chrome web browser.
You can check the password on your phone in a similar way. (Chrome browser)
2. The second way is the method using the Google security system.
If none of these methods works, unfortunately we will not regain access to the account, in such a situation it is better to simply create a new account. We will not recover files from e-mail and other data from the old account, but for example, we can recover access to the Google My Business listing - a guide on this subject will soon be available.
Finally, I encourage you to create a secure password - in a separate guide I will present my way to make a password that is easy to remember and, more importantly, difficult to break.
Do not save important passwords in browsers
Additionally, I would like to warn you against saving passwords in browsers - it is very convenient, but as you just knew - it can be easily used. This can be done by anyone who temporarily accesses your device. Therefore, in my opinion, passwords to very important websites (bank accounts or just Google accounts) should be in your head only. And of course, don't use the same password everywhere. Finally - do not get paranoid, use the option of remembering the password in the browser, for less important pages - where a potential break-in - will not bring large losses.
