How to Sign In to Robinhood® — Complete Guide

This page covers everything you need to know about the Robinhood® login process: signing in, dealing with forgotten passwords, enabling two-factor authentication (2FA), troubleshooting login problems, and best practices to keep your account safe from fraud and phishing attacks.

Signing In — Quick Steps

To access your Robinhood® account, open the Robinhood® mobile app or visit the official robinhood.com website. Click “Log In” and enter the email address or username associated with the account and your password. If you’ve enabled biometric authentication on your mobile device (Face ID or fingerprint), you can use that for fast access after initial setup. For desktop users, ensure the browser is up-to-date and that you’re on the correct robinhood.com domain to avoid spoofed pages.

Recommended Sign-In Tools

Use a reputable password manager to store complex, unique passwords for Robinhood® and other financial services. This reduces the chance of credential reuse — a common cause of account breaches.

If You Forget Your Password

Click the “Forgot password?” link on the Robinhood® login page, enter your registered email, then follow the reset instructions sent to your mailbox. If you don’t see the email, check spam folders and verify you used the correct address. If you’ve lost access to the email account, you’ll need to contact Robinhood® Support and verify your identity through their secure process.

Enabling Two-Factor Authentication

Two-factor authentication protects accounts by requiring a temporary code in addition to your password. For the highest security, use an authenticator app (Google Authenticator, Authy) rather than SMS codes, which can be vulnerable to SIM-swapping attacks. After enabling 2FA, save backup codes in a secure offline place so you can regain access if you lose your device.

Troubleshooting Login Errors

Common sign-in issues include “invalid username or password,” account lockouts after repeated failed attempts, or verification errors during 2FA. Basic troubleshooting steps: confirm you’re using the correct email/username, reset your password if necessary, try logging in from another device or browser, clear cache and cookies, and check that Robinhood® services are operational (status pages or official Twitter/Help Center updates can confirm outages).

When to Contact Support

Escalate to Robinhood® Support if you detect unauthorized access, have trouble resetting your password, or lose access to 2FA and backup codes. Use the in-app support flow or verify contact details on robinhood.com — never share passwords, private keys, or recovery codes via email or social media.

Protecting Your Robinhood® Account Long-Term

Regularly review account activity and device access logs. Remove devices you no longer use and unlink sessions that seem unfamiliar. Set strong security questions where applicable and maintain updated contact information so you can receive account alerts. If you suspect fraud, document everything: take screenshots, note transaction times and amounts, and contact official support immediately.

This guide provides general advice for Robinhood® login and account security. For urgent or account-specific issues, always contact Robinhood® Support via the official app or verified support channels.
