Why can't I log in to my account?

You can usually fix login issues by checking your browser or app settings, then resetting your password if needed.

Check your login details

  • Make sure you’re using the correct email address
  • Try logging in with the same method you used to sign up (email, Google, Apple, etc.)

Try these troubleshooting steps

On desktop

  1. Clear your browser’s cache and cookies.
  2. Disable any browser extensions or add-ons. 
  3. Turn off pop-up blockers temporarily. 
  4. Quit your browser, then reopen it and try logging in again.

On the mobile app (iOS & Android)

  1. Close the app completely.
  2. Reopen the app and try logging in again. 
  3. If the issue continues, try logging in through a mobile browser instead.

Check your security or ad blocker settings

Some security tools can block parts of Skillshare and prevent login.

  • If you’re using antivirus software (especially on Windows), add skillshare.com to your safe or allowed list
  • If you’re using an ad blocker, add the following domains to your allowlist: 
    • brightcove.com
    • google.com 
    • siftscience.com 

Then try logging in again.

Reset your password

  1. Go to the login page. 
  2. Enter your email address. 
  3. Click Sign in
  4. In the next screen, click Forgot password? 
  5. Follow the instructions in the email to reset your password.
