How do I merge my duplicate accounts?

For all Remind users.

You may have duplicate Remind accounts if you're in a school or district that has the Remind Hub plan and the organization created an account for you, if you've used more than one email address or phone number with Remind, or if your contact information has changed since you first signed up for Remind. This article will show you how to merge your duplicate accounts so you can send and receive messages via one Remind account.

This will ensure that you'll keep your school role as well as classes and can access your school account immediately. 

This article contains the following sections:

  • Web
  • iOS app
  • Android app

Things to keep in mind

    • Please keep in mind that any private conversations from the merged account will not transfer over, but all new conversations moving forward will be in your linked account. Also, you may or may not be prompted to create a new password after the merge is complete.
    • Log out of the Remind app before you share or change your device. This is to avoid your account from being accidentally accessed by another user. If you believe you've merged an account in error, please contact our Support team via rmd.me/help.
