## Verified facts

Checked against Acorn TV's own documentation on 2026-08-20. Fields absent below are ones Acorn TV does not document, not ones we assumed.

| Field | Value |
|---|---|
| Reset starts at | https://signup.acorn.tv/forgotpassword.jsp |
| Reset by email | yes |
| The email contains | a link |

## Steps

1. **Open Acorn TV's password reset page** at https://signup.acorn.tv/forgotpassword.jsp. This is where the "Forgot password?" link on the sign-in screen leads.
2. **Enter the email address on the account.** If you are not sure which address that is, search your inboxes for mail from acorn.tv; the inbox holding those messages is the account email.
3. **Open the reset email and follow its link.** Links are single-use and short-lived; if nothing arrives in a few minutes, check spam and confirm the address.
4. **Choose a strong new password.** 16+ random characters, and never one used anywhere else.
5. **Store it somewhere sealed**: a password manager or encrypted vault, not a note and not a screenshot.

## Common problems

- **Reset link expires after two hours.** The password reset link expires after two hours. If the link expires, simply visit the forgot password page again to request a new one. (https://support.acorn.tv/kb/guide/en/i-forgot-my-password-w9g4vJOEyz/Steps/4297077)
- **Reset email may not arrive.** Password reset emails may end up in spam or junk folders. Users should add acorntv@acorn.tv (or support@acorn.tv) to their contacts or safe sender list before requesting a reset. (https://support.acorn.tv/kb/guide/en/i-forgot-my-password-w9g4vJOEyz/Steps/4297077)

## Doing it automatically

Repass connects to Gmail once, finds the accounts you have, and runs this flow for you in your own browser. Passwords are generated on your device and encrypted before they are stored; Repass also holds a key that can unwrap the vault, so signing in is enough to open it. It pauses and hands over when a site asks for a CAPTCHA or a code.
