This guide starts from the point where you are in the Account Settings for your account. If you do not know how to get to account settings, please read the "Accessing Account Settings" guide by tapping here. Also; by tapping any of the pictures in this article you can see the enlarged versions of them. From the Account Settings menu, just under Password, tap "Account Security". You will then be presented with this screen: Click "Enable" and a modal will appear, greying out the rest of the site. Like so: If you don't already have the application, you can download it for free from the Apple App Store or Google Play. These links can be found in the introduction, and they can be found on the Setup box. Then start up the app on your mobile device. Once you've got the app loaded, press the red circle with a "+" in it, and select Scan QR Code. If your phone doesn't have a camera, or it's broken, then at the "Set Up Account Verification" section on EcchiDreams, click the "Not able to scan QR Code?", then press the red circle on your device and fill out the information appropriately. You'll be then given a code which you must input back into the box on EcchiDreams, and that's it; press "Verify Code" and you're all set. Protip: Wait until the circle next to the code is as full as possible to press your finger down on it to copy the code. Then, you can switch back to the website and paste it into the box.

Setting up Two-Factor Authorisation (Sometimes referred to as 2FA) is a very sensible precaution. In our "Changing your Password" guide we recommend using 2FA, and this guide will show you how. We'll also briefly talk about the Recently Viewed Devices option in account settings. This guide is split into three sections, not including this introduction: Introduction (You are here) Desktop/Laptop Users Mobile/Tablet Users Recently Viewed Devices If you are uncertain as to which you're on, please click (or tap) here. You will need a mobile device and the Google Authenticator app which you can get here:

You will then be presented with this screen: From here just input your current password, and enter the new password you'd like. EcchiDreams will show a password strength-o-meter and enforce a Fair password or better. Like so: Once you've entered your password, just hit save. You'll get a "Password Successfully Changed" Box appear, and the text boxes will go blank again. You will also receive an email from us just to confirm you changed your password (because if you didn't, it means someone else did; if this is the case, please immediately email us back by just replying to it). That's it. Happy dreaming!

Changing your password from time to time is not only smart, but advisable. In this introduction we'll share some best practices as well as some tips and tricks, and then show you how to change your password further into the guide. Changing your password is very easy, and we recommend doing so from time to time. Remember: It is your sole responsibility to protect your account from any access by anyone who isn't you, be that authorised or unauthorised, and it is highly recommended that you do not share your account with others. If you must share your computer or other browsing equipment with another person, or you are using a public computer, it is also highly recommended that you make sure you log out of your account after use. This guide is split into two sections, not including this introduction: Introduction (You are here) Desktop/Laptop Users Mobile/Tablet Users If you are uncertain as to which you're on, please click (or tap) here. Best Practices When setting a password, we recommend: That it is not a dictionary word, and would be hard to guess by a third party. That it contains an assortment of letters, numbers and symbols, and that your password is over 8 characters long. This will help prevent brute forcing (a technique used to systematically go through every character in any language to guess the password). That, if possible, you do not reuse any password from any other site; especially where it might be known to the owners, administrators, staff, members, or third-party companies of that site. If you’re using a complex password, please use a free open source password manager with encryption. Do not write down your password, or store it in plain text. We also recommend: Changing your password, at either 6 month or 12 month intervals. Never using the same password on multiple sites. (Seriously, don't!) Setting up Two-Factor-Authentication, which you can learn about here. (Needs to be written up) KeePass We very highly recommend KeePass which is a free, OSI Certified (which means it's open source), and very secure password manager for Windows. There are contributed versions for Linux, Mac, Apple Mobile, and Android as well, as you can see on their downloads page. It is quite feature rich, and even contains a password generator that you can customise (and EcchiDreams does work with High-ANSI characters, which makes it even harder to brute force because of the array of possible symbols used). Of course you may want to use a different password manager, and that's completely fine; as they let you have a master password if used properly, you'll never have the same password on multiple sites. Disclaimer: Please note that whilst this is extremely unlikely any damages may be caused from either proper or improper use of the software, we are not responsible or liable for any that do. EcchiDreams doesn't support KeePass; meaning if there is a problem with the application you need to take it up with the people who developed it - we did not. This is not a paid endorsement, nor is it something we were asked to endorse. Some of the staff on EcchiDreams have used this application for years, and found it to be solid and reliable.

If you do not know how to get to account settings, please read the "Accessing Account Settings" guide by tapping here.

You will then be presented with this screen: Just enter your new email address and your current password (for security reasons), and press save. You will then receive an email very similar to one you got when you registered to your new email address, asking you to verify your new address; your account will need to be reactivated in this fashion, as we validate all email addresses used here. That's it. Happy dreaming!

Have you changed your email address recently, or perhaps the one attached to your account is out of date? Updating it is very easy, and gives you peace of mind in case you ever forget your password. Please note that you will need to re-activate and re-validate your account with your new email address. An email will be sent to the email address you specify in the text box, outlining what you need to do. Changing your email address should be an extremely easy process to do.
