Having trouble resetting your Traeger app password? You’re not alone.
Recently, I encountered the same problem and discovered that others have faced it too. In this blog post, I’ll share my experience and the solution I found to help you regain access to your Traeger app.
To resolve Traeger app password reset issues, use a PC instead of a mobile device. Access the password reset page on a PC browser, request a reset code, and follow the instructions to set a new password. This bypasses compatibility issues with iPhones and Safari.
The Password Reset Problem
I was unexpectedly logged out of my Traeger app and needed to reset my password.
When I requested a password reset, I received a six-digit code, but every time I entered it, the app said it was incorrect. Frustrating, right?
The Search for a Solution
Contacting Traeger Support
My first course of action was to call Traeger support. Unfortunately, they couldn’t help me because they don’t control the app. I was left feeling stuck and unsure of what to do next.
Trying a Different Email Address
Another user in a forum suggested using a different email address and creating a new password. While this workaround seemed like a possible solution, I didn’t want to create a new account and risk losing my saved data or facing the same issue again in the future.
The Potentially Solved Solution: Using a PC
Finally, after spending more time searching for answers, I found a solution that worked for me. Here’s what I did:
- Use a PC instead of an iPhone or other mobile device to reset the password.
- Access the Traeger app password reset page on your PC’s web browser.
- Enter your email address and request a password reset code.
- Check your email, retrieve the six-digit code, and enter it on the password reset page on your PC.
- Set a new password.
This method allowed me to reset my password successfully, and I was then able to log back into the Traeger app on my iPhone.
Final Thoughts
It seems that the Traeger app’s password reset system may have compatibility issues with iPhones and the Safari web browser. Using a PC to reset your password might be your best bet if you encounter this problem.
While it’s not the most convenient solution, it worked for me, and I hope it helps you regain access to your Traeger app as well.
