Where to find your Disney Plus password
You cannot see your Disney Plus password after you create it — Disney does not store it in a way that lets you view it. If you need to sign in and do not remember your password, you will need to reset it instead. The reset process sends a link to the email address connected to your account, and you use that link to create a new password.
If you are already signed in on a device, you do not need your password. You can watch Disney Plus without entering it again until you sign out or the app logs you out automatically. If you want to sign in on a different device or a different browser, you will need either your password or access to your email account.
Key Takeaways
- Disney Plus does not show you your password after you create it, so you will need to reset it if you forget it.
- Password resets are sent to the email address on your account, so you must have access to that email to reset your password.
- The reset link works for 24 hours, and you can create a new password as many times as you need during that window.
- If you cannot access your email account, you may need to verify your identity through other methods before Disney Plus will let you reset your password.
How to reset your password on the Disney Plus website
Go to the Disney Plus sign-in page at disneyplus.com and look for the "Forgot password?" link below the password field. Click it. Enter the email address connected to your Disney Plus account and click the button to send the reset link.
Check your email inbox for a message from Disney. The subject line usually says something like "Reset your Disney Plus password." Open that email and click the link inside it. That link takes you to a page where you can type a new password. Create a password that is at least 6 characters long, then confirm it by typing it again. Click the button to save your new password.
You can now sign in with your new password on any device. The reset link stops working after 24 hours, so if you do not use it within a day, you will need to request a new one by going through the "Forgot password?" process again.
How to reset your password on the Disney Plus app
Open the Disney Plus app on your phone, tablet, or streaming device. On the sign-in screen, look for a "Forgot password?" or "Need help signing in?" link. Tap or click it. Enter the email address for your account.
Disney will send a reset link to that email. Open your email on any device, find the message from Disney, and click the link. Follow the same steps as above: create a new password, confirm it, and save it. You can then use that new password to sign in on the app.
What to do if you do not receive the reset email
Check your spam or junk folder first. Reset emails from Disney sometimes get filtered there by mistake. If you find it, mark it as not spam so future emails go to your inbox.
If the email is not in your spam folder, wait a few minutes and request the reset link again. Sometimes emails take time to arrive. If you still do not see it after 10 minutes, the email address on your account may be wrong or no longer active. Try signing in with a different email address if you created your account with more than one.
If none of those steps work, you may need to verify your identity through other information on your account, such as the payment method or the last four digits of a card you used. Disney Plus will guide you through this process on their account recovery page.
How to change your password when you already know it
If you are signed in and want to change your password for security reasons, you do not need to reset it. Go to your account settings instead. On the website, click your profile icon in the top right corner and select "Account." Look for a section called "Password" or "Security" and click the option to change your password.
You will be asked to enter your current password first, then type your new password twice. Click save. On the Disney Plus app, the steps are similar: go to your profile, find settings or account, and look for the password or security section.
Keeping your password find
Use a password that is hard to guess. Mix uppercase letters, lowercase letters, numbers, and symbols if Disney Plus allows them. Do not use the same password for Disney Plus that you use for other accounts, because if one account is compromised, the others stay safe.
If you share your Disney Plus account with family members, consider using a password manager to store your password securely instead of writing it down or sharing it through text or email. If you think someone else has your password, reset it right away using the steps above.
Frequently Asked Questions

No. Disney Plus does not show you your password after you create it. If you need to know your password, you will have to reset it and create a new one.
How long does the password reset link stay active?
The reset link works for 24 hours. If you do not click it within that time, you will need to request a new reset link by going through the "Forgot password?" process again.
What if I do not have access to the email on my Disney Plus account?
You can still reset your password if you can verify your identity another way. Disney Plus may ask you to confirm information like your payment method or the last four digits of a card you used. Go to the account recovery page on the Disney Plus website to start this process.
