How do you change Snapchat username on Android?

Changing your Snapchat username on Android isn't currently an option. Snapchat only allows users to change their display name, not their username. The display name is what other users see when they interact with you, but it's separate from your username, which is used for login and unique identification on the platform.

Here's how you can change your display name on Snapchat:

1. **Open Snapchat**: Launch the Snapchat app on your Android device.

2. **Go to Profile**: Tap on your profile icon or Bitmoji in the top-left corner of the screen to go to your profile page.

3. **Edit Profile**: Tap on the "Edit Profile" button, which looks like a pencil icon.

4. **Change Display Name**: Tap on the "Name" field and enter your new display name.

5. **Save Changes**: Once you've entered your new display name, tap on the checkmark or "Save" to apply the changes.

If you want to change your username, you would need to create a new Snapchat account with the desired username. Keep in mind that doing so will mean you'll lose your current Snapchat history, including friends, Snap streaks, and other data associated with your old account.

To create a new account:

1. **Log Out**: Open Snapchat, tap on your profile icon, then tap the gear icon (Settings) and scroll down to select "Log Out."

2. **Create New Account**: After logging out, tap "Sign Up" and follow the prompts to create a new account with your preferred username.

Remember to inform your friends of your new username so they can add you back![/b]
