Houseparty is a social networking app that allows up to eight people to video chat in virtual rooms. You can easily switch between these virtual rooms and there is no limit to the number of rooms you can register for. You get a notification every time a friend opens the app (unless you turn that notification off in settings). Houseparty is available as an app for Android and iOS, and there's a Google Chrome extension. On Windows and Mac, you can go to app.houseparty.com to use Houseparty. In our example, we'll use the Houseparty website on a Windows computer to change our password, but the process is pretty much the same on all platforms.

It starts with signing out of the app. Click the Settings cogwheel in the left menu and scroll to the bottom of the page. Select the Sign Out button next to the red X. You will be asked if you are sure you want to log out, so click Yes. You will now be taken to the login page. Instead of entering your username and password, click Forgot your password? Enter the email address you used to register your Houseparty account and tap Reset password. You will receive an email from Houseparty that includes an automatically generated link to change your password. Click on the password link. Now choose a new password for your Houseparty account. Remember that your password must be unique and difficult for anyone to guess. Do not reuse the same password on multiple sites. Once you've committed to a new password, enter it again in the second field of the form and click Reset Password. Your Houseparty password has now been updated.
