Overall Checklist

for change-password-URLs.json

  • There is no Well-Known URL for Changing Passwords (https://example.com/.well-known/change-password)
  • The URL either makes the experience better or no worse than being directed to just the domain in a non-logged-in state

https://app.privacy.com/reset reads like a reset password page; this is better than nothing, but is there a URL that actually represents changing the password for a user who knows their current password?

When a user is logged out, https://app.privacy.com/reset serves as the password reset page, but when a logged-in user visits the same URL they are redirected to https://app.privacy.com/account#security where they can change their password while authenticated. I've attached a video showing what I mean.

"privacy.com": "https://app.privacy.com/account#security",

It's very possible that password managers that open this URL will do so in a browser where the user isn't already signed in. Since this is for changing passwords, this should be https://app.privacy.com/account#security, which appears to take you directly to the change password page after sign in.
