Change Password

How to Change Your Password

How to change your password:

Log in
Click your profile (top right)
"Settings" → "Change Password"
Enter old password
Enter new password (2x)
Save!

Create Secure Passwords

The Rules

At least:

6 characters long (better: 8+)
1 uppercase letter (A-Z)
1 lowercase letter (a-z)
1 number (0-9)
1 special character (!@#$%...)

Good Examples

✅ Schnitzel2024! ✅ ILovePizza#42 ✅ C4nt33n_Cool99

Bad Examples

❌ password (too simple) ❌ 12345678 (only numbers) ❌ qwerty (too short, too known)

Pro Tip

Think of a sentence:

"I like to eat pizza on Friday!"
Take first letters: IltepF!
Add numbers: IltepF!2024
Super secure and easy to remember!

For Employees (Normal)

Email + Password

Your email address
Your personal password
Secure and private

Usage:

On computer at office
On phone
At home

For Kitchen Staff

Two ways:

1. Email + Password (as above)

For administration

2. Internal ID (Employee Number)

Quick during meal distribution
No password needed

Why two ways?

In kitchen: Quick with ID
In office: Secure with password
