Answers & Advice
Need help figuring out the HomeServe App? We've got detailed answers and helpful tips to common FAQs - so you can get the most out of our great home maintenance app.
Getting Started
Download the HomeServe App from the Apple App Store or the Google Play Store.
Most phones have auto-update for apps turned on, which is the default setting. If you don’t, make sure you revisit the App store and have the current version installed.
HomeServe App at the Apple Store
HomeServe App at the Google Play Store
If you have the current version, the button will state OPEN. If you have an outdated version, the button will state UPDATE.
Sign in to your HomeServe App account using your HomeServe ID. See the HomeServe ID section below for more information or visit our FAQ guide.
HomeServe ID
A HomeServe ID is a universal account that allows you easier access to your online account. When you see the HomeServe ID logo, just use the same sign in information (email and password) for both HomeServe.com and the HomeServe App – from any device.
Nothing! You can still use your existing sign in information (email and password) to access your online account at HomeServe.com or the HomeServe App.
Having a HomeServe ID gives you immediate access to your online account. You can view your plans, update your payment information, request service, change your communication preferences, opt in for paperless documents and more. By accessing your account online, you can accomplish many account services without having to call our customer support team.
When you open the App, please click on the “Create Account” button, located under the blue “Sign In” button. Enter your email address and password, then click the blue “Create Account” button. You will be sent a verification email to confirm your ownership of that email address. In the email you receive, click the blue “Verify My Account” button. Once your email is verified, close your email and re-open the App to continue to add your HomeServe plans.
If you forgot your password, or simply want to reset it, there are two ways you can do it:
On the Sign In screen, please click “Forgot password?” located above the blue “Sign In” button. You will be sent a Password Reset email. In the email, click the blue “Confirm password change” button. Enter your new password – make sure it meets the requirements – and save.
Tap on the person icon, located at the top right corner of the app to open your Account Profile. In the Settings section, tap on HomeServe ID settings. Then click the blue “Reset Password” button. You will be sent a Password Reset email. In the email, click the blue “Confirm password change” button. Enter your new password – make sure it meets the requirements – and save.
We launched HomeServe ID on December 14, 2021, along with some other system updates. If you have not signed in to your HomeServe online account since January 27, 2022, you will need to reset your password for security purposes.
Please make sure your new password meets the requirements:
• At least 8 characters
• At least 3 of the following:
◦ Lowercase letters (a-z)
◦ Uppercase letters (A-Z)
◦ Numbers (0-9)
◦ Special characters (ex. !@#$%^&*)
• Cannot contain part of username
• Cannot be the same as the last 10 passwords
If you have forgotten your password, or entered the wrong password 5 times, your HomeServe ID will be locked. A Blocked Access email will be sent to you. Click the “Unblock your account” link to reset your password. Please make sure your new password meets the requirements:
• At least 8 characters
• At least 3 of the following:
◦ Lowercase letters (a-z)
◦ Uppercase letters (A-Z)
◦ Numbers (0-9)
◦ Special characters (ex. !@#$%^&*)
• Cannot contain part of username
• Cannot be the same as the last 10 passwords
When you first create your HomeServe ID and access the app, you will be prompted to enable your Face Recognition / Fingerprint reader. If you declined enabling Face Recognition / Fingerprint reader when you first signed up, you can enable or disable it at any time. In the Account Profile menu, tap on HomeServe ID settings. Then slide the toggle next to Face Recognition / Fingerprint reader – green is enabled, gray is disabled. Please note, you must have Face Recognition / Fingerprint reader enabled for use on your mobile device for it to work in the App.

• Sign in to your HomeServe App account using your HomeServe ID.
• Tap My Lists in the bottom navigation menu.
• Tap on +Add Item
• Tap on +Add Item Label Photo (at the top) or Enter Information Manually (at the bottom).
◦ +Add Item Label Photo – Choose an existing photo from your library or take a photo which clearly shows the manufacturer and model number of the item.
◦ Enter Information Manually – Type the manufacturer and model number in the fields as prompted. **Please note that we cannot identify items from a barcode scan, QR code, or from the serial number alone.
• Follow the steps on screen to complete adding the item.
• Please be aware that the item recognition is not intended to be instant in the App. We want to send back quality results, so it may take a bit of time before all your items are complete.
• Tap on the item or content that you want to delete.
• Scroll down and tap on the “Delete” button.
Once you add an item to the HomeServe App, our content team starts working to retrieve the supporting content and add it to your account. The “Processing” indicator is our way of letting you know that we’re working on it, and you’ll have it soon. When this indicator disappears, it means the content is there.
If the item still says “Processing” please be patient as we are still working on it. Nothing is broken.
