A recovery phone number or email address helps you reset your password if:

• You forget your password
• Someone else is using your account
• You’re locked out of your account for another reason

Tip: If you change your recovery phone or email, Google may still offer to send verification codes to your previous recovery phone number or email address for 7 days. If someone starts to use your account without your permission, this allows you to quickly secure your settings.

• To send you a code to get into your account if you’re ever locked out
• To block someone from using your account without your permission
• To make it easier for you to prove that an account is yours

If your recovery phone number is the same as another phone number you’ve added to your account, it might be used for other purposes. Learn more about how phone numbers are used.

• To let you know if you're about to run out of storage space
• To tell you if there’s suspicious activity on your account

Go to the account recovery page, and answer the questions as best you can. These tips can help.

• From a device you normally use to sign in.
• From a location where you normally sign in.
• The following week from the device that you’re currently using.
