Changing your username

A username on TikTok is the name displayed on your profile and in your profile link. It can also be used to search for or tag an account. Every account is required to have a username.

To change your username on TikTok:
1. In the TikTok app, tap Profile at the bottom.
2. Tap Edit profile.
3. Enter your desired username.
4. Tap Save.

Keep in mind:
•  Your username can be changed once every 30 days.
•  If you give up your username, you will not be able to add that username to an account for a short period of time.
•  Changing your username will also change your profile link.
•  Usernames can only contain letters, numbers, underscores, and periods. However, periods can't be added to the end of a username.

Note: You can contact us through Report a Problem if you'd like to change the username on your verified account.
