Name is random characters on desktop app and mobile

Solved!

Name is random characters on desktop app and mobile

 

After my premium ended, my name became a string of random characters. Now that i have premium again, it is still there. I login via facebook so it should just take that name! I don't know how to change it. I see this both on the desktop app and on android app. 

 

Is there any way to fix this?

Hey @BaPo

 

That string of characters is your actual Spotify username, which was assigned automatically to you when you created your account through Facebook.

 

Fortunately, they aren't something you need to remember, since you can simply sign in with your email address.

 

Sometimes it's displayed like that in the app, but normally it should update itself after a little while with your name.

 

Hope it helps. 🙂
