How to reset your Komoot password

Q: What is Komoot's password reset page?

https://www.komoot.com/signin/forgot. Go there directly rather than through a link in an email, since reset pages are widely impersonated.

Do it by hand with the steps below, checked against Komoot's own documentation. Or connect Gmail once and Repass runs the same flow for you and seals the new password in your vault.

The manual way

Reset your Komoot password in 5 steps

Open Komoot's password reset page
Go straight to www.komoot.com/signin/forgot. This is the same place the “Forgot password?” link on the sign-in screen sends you, so starting here saves a step and, more importantly, means you are typing your details into Komoot's own domain rather than whatever a search result offered you.

That matters more than it sounds. Password reset pages are the single most impersonated page on the internet, because a convincing copy collects exactly what an attacker needs. Check the address bar reads www.komoot.com/signin/forgot before you type anything.
Enter the email on the account
Type the email address the account uses. If you are not certain which address that is, search every inbox you own for old mail from komoot.com: receipts, sign-in alerts, notification digests. The inbox holding those is the account email, whatever you assumed it was.

This is where most resets quietly fail. People request a reset for the address they use today, get nothing, and conclude the account is gone, when in fact the reset went to an address they stopped checking years ago.
Enter the verification code
Komoot sends a verification code. Type it on the reset page to prove the request came from you.

Codes expire quickly, usually within minutes. If yours is rejected, request a fresh one rather than retyping the old one, and check you are not reading a code from an earlier attempt still sitting further up the inbox.
Choose a strong new password
Use 16 or more random characters, and never one you have used anywhere else. A reused password turns one company's breach into a break-in everywhere you reused it.
Store it somewhere sealed
Save it in a password manager or encrypted vault. Not a note, not a screenshot, and not “the usual one with a 2 on the end”, which is the same password as far as anyone attacking it is concerned.

The Repass way

Watch Repass reset Komoot.

You never give Repass your current Komoot password. It uses Komoot's ordinary account-recovery process to replace it, the same flow you would click through yourself.

Get Started

Pick a route

Which Komoot recovery method should you use?

Start with what you still have access to, not with what you would prefer. Every route below verifies you through a contact method already on the account, which is why the answer is decided before you begin.

Still signed in somewhere?

Then change the password in settings instead. You will not need any of this.

You can still open the email on the account

Use the email reset. Komoot sends a code there and you are done in a couple of minutes. This is also the only route Repass can drive for you.

You have neither any more

This stops being a password problem and becomes an account-recovery one. Recover the email account or the phone number first.

When it goes wrong

Trouble resetting Komoot?

Only the most recent password reset is valid

If you request multiple password resets, only the password from the most recent email will work. Older reset passwords will not function. Source

Password contains hidden spaces when copy-pasted

When copying and pasting the password from the reset email, extra spaces or hidden characters may be inadvertently included. Typing the password manually is recommended to avoid this issue. Source

Reset email goes to spam folder

The password reset email from notification@komoot.de may be filtered into the spam or junk folder. Check your spam folder and add the sender to your trusted contacts to ensure delivery. Source

Must regain email access to reset password

If you no longer have access to your registered email address, you must first recover your email account through your email provider before you can reset your komoot password. Source

The reset email never arrived

Check spam and promotions, confirm the address you entered is the one the account uses, then request one more. Repeated requests can rate-limit you, so wait a few minutes between attempts rather than hammering the button.

Your phone number changed

Use the email route instead, as long as that inbox is still yours. Update the number as soon as you are back in, or the next reset has the same problem.

You think someone else is in the account

Reset first, then change the same password everywhere else you used it.

There is no password to reset

If you originally signed up with Google, Apple or Facebook, the account has no password of its own. Sign in the way you did the first time.

After the reset

Your password was not the only thing to fix.

1Check the recovery email on the account

The next reset goes to whatever address is on file today. If that is an inbox you no longer open, you are one forgotten password away from being locked out for good.

2Check the recovery phone number

Same reasoning. An old number is worse than no number, because it can end up reassigned to a stranger.

3Change it anywhere you reused it

If this password was used elsewhere, those accounts are as exposed as this one was. That is the job Repass exists to do in bulk.

Context

Why are you resetting your Komoot password?

I just forgot it

The ordinary case, and what the steps above are for. Nothing is wrong with the account.

I think someone else knows it

Reset it, then change the same password anywhere else you used it, since that is usually how they got it.

I reused it somewhere else

Change it here and everywhere else. Until you do, the weakest site holding that password decides the security of all of them.

It showed up in a breach

Rotate it even if Komoot was never breached. Passwords travel between sites in your head, not in theirs.

I have not changed it in years

Age alone is not a reason. Being reused, guessable or exposed is. Unique and random can be left alone.

Questions

Komoot password reset FAQ

How do I reset my Komoot password?

Open www.komoot.com/signin/forgot, enter the email on the account, type the code you are sent, and set a new password. It usually takes a couple of minutes.

What is Komoot's password reset page?

www.komoot.com/signin/forgot. Go there directly rather than through a link in an email, since reset pages are widely impersonated.

Can I reset my Komoot password using email?

Yes. Komoot sends a reset code to the email address on the account.

Why isn't my Komoot reset email arriving?

Check spam and promotions first, then check whether you requested the reset for the address the account actually uses. Most “no email” cases are a reset sent correctly to an inbox the person no longer opens. Searching your inboxes for older mail from komoot.com tells you which account is the real one.

What should I do if my Komoot account was hacked?

Reset the password immediately. Then change it anywhere else you used the same password, because that is usually how they got in.

Can Repass reset my Komoot password for me?

Yes. Connect Gmail once and Repass walks Komoot's forgot-password flow itself: it requests the reset, reads only its own reset email, sets a strong 20-character password and seals it in your vault. If Komoot asks for a CAPTCHA or a texted code, Repass stops, shows you the page, and asks you for that one step.

Does Repass need to know my current Komoot password?

No, and it never asks for one. Repass uses Komoot's ordinary account-recovery flow to replace the password, which is why it works on accounts whose password you have already forgotten.

Is it safe to let software reset my Komoot password?

Repass generates and encrypts passwords on your own device, and the model that drives the reset is never shown a password, a reset link or a verification code. Those stay local to your browser. Repass does hold a key that can unwrap your vault, so that signing in is enough to open it on any device; you can revoke that key, after which your master password is the only way in.
