Can't Log In to VSCO
Workaround available iOS, Android, Web Updated October 21, 2026
Quick answer
Most VSCO login problems come from signing in with a different method than you signed up with, or losing access to the original email/phone. Try every sign-in method, check spam for verification emails, and use Support's Account Recovery form if needed.
Most likely fix: Use the original sign-in method.
Symptoms
Wrong password, no verification email, VSCO asks you to create a new username, or your old phone number/email no longer works.
Why it happens
- Signing in with a different method (Apple/Google/email/phone) creates or opens a different account
- Lost access to the email or phone number on the account
- Verification emails going to spam
- Old Android app versions had a login bug (fixed in 480.1)
How to fix it
Try these in order — the most common fix is first.
1. Use the original sign-in method
- Log out and try each method you might have used: Apple, Google, Facebook, email, phone
- If VSCO asks you to pick a new username, that's a new account — go back
2. Change login details from a device that's still signed in
- Open VSCO on an old phone or browser where you're logged in
- Update your email in profile settings, then reset your password
3. Recover the account through Support
- Check your spam folder for verification emails first
- Start a chat with VSCO Support and ask for the Account Recovery form
- Phone-based accounts may need a government or school ID
