I'm using Spotimote on Android, and i need my USERNAME to log in as Premium user to be able to save to playlists etc.
But i got a facebook spotify account and i CAN'T use that in Spotimote.. How do i find my real username? (Should be alot of numbers or something)
Thanks.
Solved! Go to Solution.
The way I've found to identify your Spotify username (string of numbers) when you're using Facebook to sign in.
1. Open the Spotify Desktop app.
2. Log in using your Facebook credentials.
3. Click on your name in the top right of the screen to go to your Profile (should show list of recently played artists/playlists/etc)
4. At the top of the screen on your Profile page, you should see your Name in really big letters. Right under your name is a circle with three dots in it (elipsis).
5. Click the clircle. and "Copy Spotify URI"
6. Paste the Spotify URI somewhere you can read it (notepad, word doc, search bar, whatever)
7. The string of digits is your REAL Spotify Username.
Crazy ridiculous process, but the only way I know how to find it.
goto set device password it tells you ur username in numbers on that page. i just did it trust me.

You just have to go to your spotify account (Thru desktop) and go to set device password. And from there you'll see a set of numbers and that is your spotify username.
Yes facebook accounts are associated with a number ID, First go to https://www.spotify.com/ sign into your spotify account using your facebook login details, and then go to Overview in the option menu at the top and you should see the numerical Username associated with your facebook created spotify account.

It does not work.. My numerical username isnt on the overview page and i can't set a password on the 2nd page - it says wrong password no matter what.
When you request a device password here, you should receive an email, almost immediately confirming your device username and containing a link to set a password. What part isn't working for you?
I can't request a device password at all on that page?
What username is shown on this page exactly?
https://www.spotify.com/account/overview/
If the username shown is not a number, then you have a Spotify account that you did not create via Facebook, so you need to log in using that username and the password you set when you registered.
If you need password reset for that username:
1. Go to https://www.spotify.com/password-reset/
2. If you get redirected to your online profile (where you need to current password to make the change), you are still logged into the website. Click on your name at the top and choose Log Out.
3. Return to https://www.spotify.com/password-reset/ and you should be able to request a reset by entering your username (not your email address).

There is absolutely nothing showing the username or even saying: "username". As a Spotify Community Troubleshooter you don't really seem to know how the webpage looks like....

Just tried it - works perfectly
What password do I then use to log in?
I keep getting this error evertime I try to set a password.
There was a problem setting your password
Any idea why?
I just tried this and it worked fine
I right clicked on my real name and got the possibility to copy the URI
Ugh, thank you! I was getting very annoyed with spotify, but your instructions saved me!
