HouseParty is an application that was particularly popular in the first months of the pandemic in 2020. An app that millions of people used to make calls or video calls with their friends or family. The use of the app has been declining, in fact it was even removed from the app stores in October 2021. Despite this, many seek to recover their username or password to access the application.
If you want to re-enter your HouseParty account, you then have to recover the username or the password, depending on what the problem is in your case. For those who do not know how this can be done, we will tell you below all the steps to follow, the options we have. In this way you can re-enter your account in the well-known app. We tell you all the options we have available to do this in the application.
Recover password in HouseParty
you may have forgot the password you used in your account in the application, which means that you cannot enter it. This is an annoying situation, but it is not really a problem, because the app gives us a way to recover said password, in addition to being something simple to do. So in a matter of a few minutes you will again have access to your HouseParty account as in the past. Also, this is a process that works the same in all versions.
That is to say, It doesn't matter if you are using the app on Android, on iOS or its computer version. The way to recover the HouseParty access password or the access user will be the same in all cases. This makes it especially easy for users who have an account with it. The steps you have to follow in this case are the following:
- Open HouseParty on the device you want to join.
- Go to the home screen.
- Under the User and password boxes you will see that there is an option called “Forgot password?”, on which we are going to click. In Spanish it will say that you have forgotten your password.
- Enter the email address you have linked to the app.
- Wait to receive an email from HouseParty.
- Open that email.
- Click on the Reset password option that appears in it.
- Enter the new password you want to use on your account.
- Confirm the password.
- Click on the Reset Password button.
- The password change has been confirmed or effected in this way.
- Sign in to your account in the app.
The steps are not complicated, so this process will not take you much time. The most normal thing is that in a couple of minutes you have done everything and thus have access to your HouseParty account again. Also, it doesn't matter which version of the app you're using, as these steps are the same in all cases. So it's something that certainly makes it even easier for everyone.
Change Password
Of course, recovering the username or password in HouseParty is the only time that you can change this password. The app has never had a native feature where users can change their password whenever they want. That is, if you want a new key that is more secure for your account, because you want to protect it better, it is not something that you are going to be able to do. Within its settings we do not have the possibility to change this password in a simple way. Something that in other applications does happen.
Also, this is something that we can not do in any of the versions of the app. Unfortunately, it cannot be done on Android, iOS or their desktop versions. This is a clear limitation to take into account in this regard, since we cannot update the key whenever we want, when we consider it necessary, because it does not seem like a secure key, for example.
So if at any time we want to change the password in our HouseParty account, we will have to resort to the option mentioned in the first section. In other words, we are going to have to use password recovery, pretend that we have forgotten the access password to our account in the app. It is somewhat annoying for many users, but it is the only way, especially now that the app stops working in many cases and that there are hardly any users who use it.
Change username or username
We can not only recover or change the password in HouseParty. The application also has an option with which be able to change the user we use, that is, change the username with which we access it. That name may no longer be the one you want to use in your account, so you will be able to change it at any time without any problem. This is something that we can do in the application itself, we will not have to resort to the recovery function, as happens with the access code.
Change of username It is something that you can do in all its versions. It doesn't matter if you use the app on Android or iOS, or if you have the PC version of it. This is a feature that the creators of HouseParty have integrated into all versions. In addition, the steps that we are going to follow are the same in all cases, which undoubtedly makes it even simpler. These are the steps we have to follow in the app:
- Open HouseParty on the device you use the app on.
- Sign in to your account in the app.
- Tap the smiley face icon in one of the corners.
- Go to settings (click on the gear icon to do so).
- In the app settings, tap on the option called Edit profile.
- Go to the username box.
- Change that name and select the name you want to use in the app.
- Once set, save that name.
- The name change has already taken place.
As you can see, changing the username in the application is something very simple. It will not take us too long and it is something that can be done in any of the versions of the app. Also, whenever you feel like it, you will be able to change this username. So it is not something in which we have limitations on the part of the application, for example. The next time you enter the app, when you have a call or video call, that name will be the one that appears on the screen. It is the name that the rest of the users will see in it.
Change your email
We may have changed our email address. For this reason, we seek to put the new one in all the apps we use, so that they stop sending or resorting to the old email in case something happens. Also in HouseParty we can change this email address that we used, so that we can put the new one. So our account will be linked to this new email address at all times.
It is a simple process, similar to the one followed in the previous step, when we have changed the username. Again, it is something that we can do in all versions of the application. So it doesn't matter if you use it on your computer or on your Android phone, the steps are the same in both versions. This makes it an especially easy thing to do. The steps you have to follow if you want to change the email are:
- Open the HouseParty app on the device you're using it on.
- Sign in to your account in the app.
- Tap the smiley face icon in one corner.
- Go to the settings (click on the gear icon to do so).
- Go to Edit Profile.
- Go to the bar where you have your email address.
- Enter the new address you want to use or link to your account in the app.
- Save this change.
The process is completed like this. As you can see, this is something that will take us a few seconds. This will link your HouseParty account to the new email address you are going to use. This is something that will be of importance in the future, if for example you are going to change or recover your password in the well-known application. So it's important to have a current or proper address associated with your account at all times. So you know that you will have access to it at all times without any problem.
