# Find Your Spotify Username

If you're connecting your Spotify account to a service or importing playlists, you may need your **Spotify username** — the long one (often a mix of letters and numbers), *not* the display name you can set in your profile.

> ⚠️ Your Spotify **username** is permanent and can't be changed. It’s different from your display name, which is what most people see.

Example:

### 🖥️ Method 1: From the Spotify Desktop App

1. Open the **Spotify desktop app** (Windows or macOS).
2. Click on your profile icon or name in the **top-right corner**.
3. Click **“Account”** – this opens your Spotify account page in a browser.
4. On the account page, look under the **“Username”** section — this is your permanent Spotify username.

> **Example:** `2b8kshf88lkn7sewhg89xlf3d`

### 🌐 Method 2: From the Spotify Web Player

1. Go to [open.spotify.com](https://open.spotify.com/) and log in.
2. Click your profile picture in the top-right and select **“Account”**.
3. You’ll be redirected to the account overview page.
4. Your **username** will be listed under the “Username” field.

### 📱 Method 3: On Mobile (Less Reliable)

Unfortunately, the Spotify mobile app **does not directly show your username**. However, here’s a quick workaround:

1. Tap your profile picture (top-left on the Home tab).
2. Tap the **three dots** on the top right.
3. Tap **Share > Copy Link**.
4. Paste the link somewhere (like Notes or a browser).
5. It will look like this:

```
https://open.spotify.com/user/2b8kshf88lkn7sewhg89xlf3d
```

**The long part at the end ("**&#x32;b8kshf88lkn7sewhg89xlf3d") **is your username.**
