Google accounts: password, email and deletion

How account settings work when you sign in with Google.

If you sign in with Continue with Google, a few settings work differently.

Email

Your email follows your Google account, so you can't change it in Settings.

Password

There's no password to change. To add one, use Forgot password on the sign-in page and we email you a link to set it. You can then sign in either way.

Deleting your account

In Settings → Privacy & data → Delete account, type DELETE, then type your account email in place of a password.

Photo

We use your Google picture until you upload your own in Settings → Account.
