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 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 ("2b8kshf88lkn7sewhg89xlf3d") is your username.
