Will changing my email affect my Duolingo progress or streaks?
No worries! Updating your email won’t affect your streaks, XP, achievements, or progress.
-
Do I need to verify my new email?
Nope! I recently changed my old email on Duolingo, and I didn’t have to verify it or enter any OTP.
-
Can I use the same email for multiple Duolingo accounts?
Nope! Each email address can only be linked to one Duolingo account at a time.
-
Can I change my email without access to my old one?
If you’re already logged in to the Duolingo app or website, you don’t need your old email. But if you log out, you’ll need to log in with your old email before you can change it.

Help! I can’t access your site. I couldn’t reach you to complete a lesson yesterday, so I lost a day. I was able to connect this morning and completed a lesson, but now I’m frozen out again — all I see is a dancing Duo with the message “Loading.”
Hi Ralph Sproxton, try clearing the app cache.
For Android: Settings > Apps > Duolingo > Storage > Clear Cache.
For iOS, try reinstalling the app.

hi
how can I change my email account from gmail to Yahoo?
I changed my email, but now it says unverified. I click the verify account button and it says email sent but I never get an email. I tried another email account and same problem. It doesn’t let me change
Hi Amilia! Thanks for your comment. Please check your spam folder and add the Duolingo’s email to your safe list. Also, try clicking the “Resend Verification Email” button again. If you’re still having trouble, contact the Duolingo team for further assistance.
Hi. I tried changing my email as stated and it keeps defaulting to the original. How do I see if my email has been used on a different (old)account that I have forgotten? The email I am leaving doesn’t match the account but is the one I use. Or what else can I try. Thanks
Hi! Since the email keeps reverting and you no longer remember the old one, the best solution is to contact the Duolingo support team. They can verify your account and manually update the email for you.
