Frequently we can forget our password for access to Gmail , unless we have it stored with some utility such as Google Chrome SmartLock or Safari Keychains, and it is common due to the multiple passwords that we must keep in mind for access to various utilities..
But we should not be alarmed by having forgotten our password to access Gmail, since TechnoWikis brings a number of options to recover it in a practical way.
1. Enter the last correct password to recover forgotten password in Gmail
Step 1
To use this method we must go to the following link and access with our email account.
Gmail Mail

We will be redirected to the next window where we will be prompted to enter the last password we remember: Once entered, click on "Next" and follow the steps of the wizard.
2. Enter the date on which the Gmail account was created to retrieve forgotten password in Gmail
It can be a bit illogical since if we do not remember the password we can remember the date on which the account was created, unless we created it 2 days or a month ago..

Step 3
This will display the option to enter the month and year in which the Gmail account has been created: Once we enter this information, click on "Next" and follow the steps of the wizard.
3. Use the phone verification number to retrieve forgotten password in Gmail
This method applies when we have created two-step authentication, mail and telephone, in the process of creating the Gmail account.
Step 1
To do this, we are going to enter our email again and click on the Forgot password? Where we will see the following. Click on the "try another method" line
Step 2
In the window that appears, select the country of the account and enter the registered telephone number: Once we enter the telephone number, we click on "Send"
Step 3
We will receive an SMS text message with the respective code which we will enter there: Click on "Next" to continue with the password recovery process.
4. Get a verification code via email to recover forgotten password in Gmail
Within the 2-factor authentication process we register a telephone number and an alternative email which will be used for cases like this.
