(Pocket-lint) – If you want to change your Spotify username, there are a few steps to do so without creating a whole new account. It’s not always obvious how to do this, so we’re here to walk you through the steps to change your username.
It should be noted, however, that your username and your display name are two different things. If you’re having trouble logging in, the best way to access your account is by using your email address.
Your display name, on the other hand, is what appears on your profile and what people can see in your public playlists when you share them. If you want to update it, follow these steps.
How to Change Your Spotify Username on Your Phone
You can change your Spotify profile name in different ways. You can do this from the Spotify app, the Spotify web player, or through the desktop app.
If you have the Spotify app installed on your phone, follow these steps to change your display name:
- Open the Spotify app
- At the top right, click the gear icon to access the settings menu.
- From there, click on “View Profile”.
- Then “edit profile” under your display name
- Tap on your username, then edit it and put in a new one.
- Click “Save” when you are satisfied.
How to Change Your Spotify Username with the App
Changing your Spotify username in the desktop app is just as easy as on your mobile, maybe even easier.
- Click on your profile name at the top right of the app to access the drop-down menu.
- From there, click on “Profile”.
- Then just click on your name and edit it
- Then click Save when you’re done.
How to change your username on the web
Spotify’s web player isn’t just a useful way to listen to music and podcasts if you’re away from your machine and don’t have your phone with you. It can also be used for other things like changing your username.

- First, go to the Spotify website and log in.
- Click on your profile name at the top right of the app to access the drop-down menu.
- From there, click on Profile
- Then just click on your name and edit it
- Then click save when you are done
