How do I change my name, e-mail or password?
By Nimanto 2 min read
In short
Open Account settings from the menu under your picture at the top right. Change your name and phone under Profile and choose Save profile. Under Sign-in & security, Change beside E-mail sends a code to the new address, and Change beside Password sets a new one.
Everything about your account lives in Account settings. Open the menu under your picture at the top right of any page and choose Account settings. The same changes can be made in the Nimanto app, and each place shows what the other saved.
Your name, phone and sign-off
- 1Under Profile, change Your name.
- 2Add or change your Mobile phone, with the country code, like +1 555 010 0199. It is kept on your account; reply texts go to the number each invitation names.
- 3Set a Sign-off if you like. The app starts a new invitation's "from" line with it.
- 4Choose Save profile. The button is enabled only once something has changed.
Your e-mail address
- 1Under Sign-in & security, find E-mail and choose Change.
- 2Type the new address and choose Send code.
- 3Enter the six-digit code sent to the new address. Your account moves to it, and the old address is told.
An address another Nimanto account already uses cannot be taken. Google and Apple sign-in keep working after the move.
Your password
- With a password already: choose Change beside Password, enter the current password, then the new one twice. At least eight characters.
- Signed up with Google or Apple: choose Set a password instead. No current password is asked for.
Either way, the Nimanto app is signed out on your phones to be safe, while this browser stays signed in. If you cannot remember the current password, use Forgot your password? on the same card. See I forgot my password.
Also under Sign-in & security
- Passkeys: how many you have, and Manage to add or remove them. See How do I sign in to Nimanto?.
- Linked sign-in: which of Google and Apple are linked to the account.
The other sections
Notifications chooses which news reaches your inbox and which reaches your phone in the app. Privacy holds your cookie settings and the app analytics switch. Delete account is at the foot. See Notifications and the bell and How do I delete my account?.
