How To Edit Spotify Profile On Iphone

How to Change Your Spotify Username and Display Picture

Here's how to customize your Spotify profile on desktop and mobile by changing your display name and photo.

If you log in to Spotify using your Facebook, Google, or Apple credentials, the streaming platform uses your profile picture and name from these accounts as your default display photo and name.

Alternatively, you may have signed up manually and chosen your own display name. Whatever the case, you have the freedom to change your Spotify account display name and photo. We'll show you how.

How to Change Your Display Picture and Name on Spotify

You can change your Spotify display name and photo inside the mobile app on Android and iOS, on the desktop app, and via Spotify's web player.

Bear in mind that you can't change your username, only your display name. The former is tied to your account for login purposes, while the latter is what displays publicly on your profile.

On Mobile (Android and iOS)

Tap the gear icon on the top right to go to Spotify's Settings page.
Select your profile name to View profile.
Tap Edit profile.
Tap your Spotify display name to edit.
Once done, tap your display photo and select Choose photo or Take photo.
To select a photo from your gallery, select Choose photo. Only JPGs and PNGs are supported, and if you're using an iPhone, the image should not be more than 10MB.
Next, if asked, grant Spotify permission to access your storage by selecting Allow.
Select your preferred photo on your device, position it well by sliding your finger over it, and then tap Use Photo.
Tap Save to finish the process.

On Desktop (App and Web)

Select your account display photo on the top right, then Profile.
Hover over your display photo and select Choose photo.
Select your new display photo.
Edit your display name.
Click Save.
