Since its 2008 launch, Spotify has debuted a ton of best-in-class features like Wrapped and enhanced its user experience by allowing you to download your library for offline listening and easily transfer your music from other services. Even if you've grown along with them but kept the same display name all these years, you might be looking for a change.

While you can't change your Spotify username (that one is permanent), you can edit your display name-that's the one that appears publicly when people go to your profile or check out your playlists. But as Spotify has majorly revised its home page and apps over the years, it can be confusing to locate simple features, so I'll show you how to do it. If you've become disenchanted with your original Spotify display name, you can change it on the mobile app and the desktop by following four easy steps.

How to change your Spotify display name on mobile in 2024
