From February 23, Snapchat people will be able to change their usernames once a year without creating an entirely new account, the company said Thursday. The update will allow people to change names without resetting friends lists, Snap results or memories, Snapchat confirmed in an email.
To change your username, tap the Bitmoji icon to target your account. Access the settings by tapping the gear icon. Touch a username and then change the username. You will be reminded that usernames can only be changed once a year before you can enter and lock your new username.
The Snapchat called username changes one of the most searched features for the app. It will be available for both iOS and Android.
