Change Spotify Username and Display Name
Your username on Spotify cannot be changed. It is assigned to you when you create an account for the first time and is permanent in nature. Spotify uses it for identification purposes only, as you don’t need it to sign in or anything else, really. However, while you can change your display name, you can only do so on desktop. Follow the instructions below: The following instructions show how to change your Spotify display name on mobile.
Change Spotify Email
You can change the Spotify email on your account via the Web or mobile app. The option is missing on the desktop app. Follow the below instructions to change your email ID on your browser. Note that if you used Facebook to create your Spotify account, you can update the email ID from Facebook settings. Spotify has no control. Changing your email on the mobile app is equally easy.
Change Spotify Password
The password is how you protect your Spotify account. Choose a strong password that is not related to you directly. But you can only change your Spotify password on the We. It cannot be done on the desktop or mobile apps. Follow these instructions to update it on the Web:
Change Spotify Profile Picture
Unlike your username and password, you can change your Spotify profile picture on desktop and mobile. As always, let’s begin with the desktop app. The steps to change the profile picture on mobile are the same on both Android and iOS. I am using my iPhone for this guide. Did you know you could also change your playlist picture on Spotify?
Change Spotify Payment Plan
The Spotify payment plan can be cancelled or upgraded/downgraded only from the Web app. Mobile and desktop apps do not support it at the moment, which is inconvenient. Notice the “Payment details” heading below the credit card logos toward the bottom of the image below? That’s where you can update your credit card number and other information. While I couldn’t find an option to cancel Spotify’s Premium plan, the help page says it should be under “Account -> Change Plan.” Irrespective of which plan you are subscribed to, you should find it as described on the help page. This could be a bug. If you still can’t find the option, fill out this form and send it to Spotify to ask for your plan to be canceled. The free version of Spotify is ad-supported; however, there are ways to mute them. Spotify allows you full control over your profile. Editing profile details is easy and quick if you know where to look in the settings menu. However, it could use some help with its UI design to make it less cluttered and more organized. If it bothers you too much, learn how to get rid of the duplicates in your Spotify playlist.
