Have questions?
We’re here to help. Explore our FAQs for assistance.
Why won’t my login and/or password work?
Existing My Account users:
If you already use our My Account website, use the same credentials to log into the mobile app. Your User ID (your email address) and password will be the same for the mobile app.
Forgot password:
If you already have an online account, you can use the Forgot Password? on My Account or the mobile app to reset your password. Any changes made to the login information will take effect on both My Account and the mobile app immediately.
If you do not have access to the email address where the link to reset your password was sent or you could not answer any of the security questions, contact customer service (call our 800 number and press 1, then 4 for “Website Assistance”) to receive a temporary password. You will need to log into the My Account website online (not the mobile app) using the temporary password provided by the customer service representative first to reset the password. Once the password is reset in My Account it will take effect immediately and the new password can be used to log into the mobile app. Log into your My Account
How do I log in using Face ID or fingerprint (biometrics)?
You can use your phone’s built-in biometrics (Face ID on iPhone or fingerprint/face recognition on Android) instead of typing your username and password each time.
To turn this on, make sure biometrics are enabled in your phone settings:
- iPhone: Settings → Face ID & Passcode (or Touch ID & Passcode)
- Android: Settings → Security (or Biometrics)
Once biometrics are set up on your device, you’ll see an option to use them the next time you log in to our app.

- Phone: Tap the back arrow in the top-left corner
- Android: Use the back button or swipe gesture
If a page opens in your phone’s browser instead of inside the app, just close the browser tab and reopen the app.
