  Hi, I think there are some unauthorised logins on my website using my user ID. I have changed the password several times but understand the login remains in case someone has used the app to access the account. How can I check the logins without business account?

  Also, update your password on the account now. Both your WordPress.com and email client passwords.

  Hi,

  Thanks for replying.

  I have updated the password several times but realised that if I had logged in through the app, it continues to stay logged in even with new 2FA or password. Is there any way to force these unauthorised logins out if they are using the app?

  I’ve logged you off from all opened sessions so if anyone had access to your account through an app, they will need to log in again with the new password.

  I hope that helps :)
