How do I reset my Best Accountability e2ee passcode if I've forgotten it?

Steps to resetting your Best Accountability e2ee passcode after you've forgotten it.

Last updated: November 10, 2026

This article is about the Legacy E2EE passcode. The newer passkey-based encryption has no passcode: it unlocks with your passkey or your backup code. If you've lost every way to unlock it (your passkeys, your backup code and every browser that holds your keys), click Lost every way to unlock? under Unlock this browser in the End-to-End Encryption section of the account page instead. That reset permanently deletes the encrypted screenshots and events recorded so far; without the lost keys, nothing could open them anyway.

Resetting your E2EE passcode should ONLY be done if you've forgotten your current passcode. If you still remember your current e2ee passcode you can change it.

Resetting your e2ee passcode will cause you to lose access to all accountability data (screenshots, events, etc) that was encrypted using the old passcode.
