How long does Apple take to reset password?

Dear All,

Just verify if Apple can send the reset password into my email? i just recieve the notification after i manage to reset my password using my email address and phone contact number.


"In a few hours, we'll contact you at alv******88@yahoo.com to let you know your wait time will be complete.

Apple support can't help you shorten the wait time.


You can check the status of your request at any time here at iforget.apple.com


Please advise! Thanks!

No. It’s an automated process and Apple support or stores cannot do anything from their side.


Once your password is reset you should consider adding a recovery contact who can help you reset it faster. See Set up an account recovery contact - Apple Support
