Pi Network has announced the restoration of the 'Forgot Password' feature, which allows users to recover their account access via SMS. This update is particularly important with the Grace Period deadline approaching.
How to Recover Account Using SMS
Pi Network users can easily recover their accounts by following simple steps. Launch the Pi Network app on a mobile device, tap 'Forgot Password' on the login page, provide the phone number associated with the account, and enter the SMS verification code to confirm identity. After successful verification, a new password can be created to regain access.
Importance of Feature
Losing account access is a common issue in the cryptocurrency space, and the restoration of this feature underscores Pi Network's commitment to user accessibility and security. It ensures users can recover account access even if passwords are forgotten, protecting earned Pi coins from being lost. This adds peace of mind to users as they approach the Open Mainnet phase.
What is the Grace Period?
The Grace Period is a limited timeframe where users must validate accounts and protect Pi currencies. Failing to act within this period could result in the loss of account access and digital assets. The restored functionality helps mitigate such risks as the Open Mainnet phase approaches.
The restoration of the feature reaffirms Pi Network's commitment to creating a secure and user-friendly ecosystem. This update marks a significant milestone as Pi moves closer to the Open Mainnet phase.
