How to find Groupme account/password
Web browsers commonly ask you if you want to save a password when you log in to a website. Even if your current browser doesn’t have the password saved, consider whether you used another browser to log into your Groupme account in the past.
The easiest way to do this is to visit Groupme in each browser and go to the login form. See if your browser automatically fills the form in or asks if you want to use an existing login. If so, you should be able to get access to your Groupme profile as long as the password hasn’t been changed since the last login:
- Go to your browser’s preferences and locate Settings/or Security.
- Click on Password
- Then click on View Password.
Note that some browsers like Chrome will ask you to enter your device password if you set up that.
Finding passwords in different browsers:
- In Google Chrome, go to Settings > Passwords > Saved Passwords.
- In Avast Secure Browser go to > Settings > Passwords > Saved Passwords.
- In Internet Explorer click Settings > View Advanced Settings > Manage Passwords.
- In Firefox Browser, tap on Options > Security > Saved Passwords > Show Passwords.
- In Safari Browser, click Preferences > Passwords.
- In Microsoft Edge go to Settings > Passwords & Autofill > Manage Passwords.
If you’re able to locate the password and successfully log in to your Groupme, you can go into your account settings and look for the option to change your password.

- Tap on Search in emails and type in Groupme All the notifications you received from Groupme will appear on the search result.

How to reactivate Groupme account
Groupme has a dedicated web page on its website where you can delete your account. Once you enter your credentials to confirm account deletion, Groupme will temporarily deactivate your account for 30 days.
Within those 30 days, you can choose to reactivate your account if you change your mind about deleting it. After 30 days, however, your account will be permanently deleted.
- Visit the Groupme website or app on your device.
- Fill in your username and password to log in to your account.
- Tap the Login button.
Note that for this to work you must log back to Groupme with your username within 30 days of deactivating your account. Also while your account is deactivated, you can only log in with your username and password. You can’t change your password.
If all the methods above did not work, you’ll need to contact Groupme directly to complete account recovery. There are several ways of contacting the platform, depending on which method of communication you prefer. You can use the Facebook page, Twitter, Email Address, or Chatbot to contact Groupme.
