My spotify is linked to my facebook account..

Hey @rablanco,

 

Yes, Spotify accounts created via Facebook have a username consisting of numbers. Unfortunately, it's not possible to change your username at the moment but you can add your support to this idea: https://community.spotify.com/t5/Live-Ideas/Change-username/idi-p/703799

Hey @maxim

But what I don't understand is why some of mu friends have their account linked with facebook but their mames show up normally!

What exactly are you talking about? Are you talking about their account username or their display name?

 

A screenshot of an example would be great 🙂

Hmm I'm talking about how my name appears to me on the top of my app (right side).

As I understand, this is what shows up to my friends isn't it?
I will send a print screen!!

Ah okay. Have you created your Spotify account through a mobile provider or something?

I have created it on my PC! (as I remember, cause I have created it a few time ago)

 

Ah okay, yeah your username looks completely normal - That's how most usernames of Spotify accounts created via Facebook look like. 🙂

 

Your friends usernames might look different because they've signed up to Spotify directly, without using Facebook.

 

I'd recommend asking a friend how your profile looks to them.

 

Thanks!
