My Question or Issue

Instead of showing my display name, the app shows my username which it has chosen itself and I cannot change it.

See attachment. The name shown in the screenshot is my username and not my display name (like it does on desktop)

Hi @PleaseFixTheApp,

 

Thank you for posting on the Community!

 

It seems like the app is having difficulties picking up the display name. Could you log out and log back in two times?, this forces the app to synchronize again. 

 

 

If this doesn't work, can you log in with another account, such as a friend's or a family member's to see if the issue persists? Alternatively, you can create a free account here, just make sure you're logged out of your own account before creating a new one.  

 

Let us know how this goes.

It was finally fixed after fiddling around a lot with twitter support (found 5 other issues while doing that). Thanks.
