How to Change Your Email

  • Go to Settings > Account

    You must verify your new email before the change takes effect. Until verified:

  • Your old email remains active
  • You can still log in with your old email
  • The change can be canceled
  • Email Already in Use

    If the new email is already associated with another ClapDiet account, you'll see an error. Each email can only be linked to one account.

    Social Login Accounts

    If you signed up with Google or GitHub:

  • Your ClapDiet email may be different from your social login email
  • Changing your ClapDiet email won't affect social login
  • You can still sign in with Google/GitHub
  • Didn't Receive Verification Email?

  • Check your spam/junk folder
  • Make sure you typed the email correctly
  • Wait 2-3 minutes and check again
  • Try requesting a new verification email
  • Cancel the Change

    If you started an email change but want to cancel:

  • Go to Settings > Account
  • Click Cancel Email Change
  • Your original email will remain active
