How to Add Friends on Spotify Without Facebook
Adding your friends to Spotify without Facebook is a simple process that only takes a few minutes. All you need is your friend’s Spotify username.
Keep in mind that a Spotify username is usually a mix of letters and numbers. Your username is provided to you as soon as you create your account and you cannot change it.
While you can’t change your display name, you can change the name that appears on your profile and is what your friends will see when they follow you.
Here’s how to find your Spotify username to share with your friends.
- Open the Spotify app on your mobile or computer.
- Access the Settings menu by clicking on the gear symbol in the upper right corner of your screen.
- You’ll see your username at the top of the menu, along with your email address and subscription information in this section.
Since only you can see the username, you will need to ask your friends to follow these steps and provide you with their usernames so you can follow them.
