The picture you select must be .jpeg, with a maximum file size of 4 MB.
  • Your spotify profile picture will change to the uploaded picture.

How to Change Profile Picture on Spotify from the Android App

The step to change the profile picture on your Spotify account is a little bit different from the desktop app. While the desktop app allows you to upload a picture from your computer, with the mobile app, you connect to your facebook account.

Before you perform this task, ensure you are logged on to Facebook app on your smartphone.

Here are the steps:

  • Logon to your Spotify account on the mobile app. Then click The Home button.

  • Scroll down until you find Connect to Facebook.
  • Next, click Connect to Facebook. Spotify will attempt to connect to your Facebook account.
  • To permit it, click the Facebook account you wish to connect to. For mine, I clicked “Continue as Victor”.
Once you connect your Spotify account to Facebook, spotify will load your Facebook profile picture as your Spotify profile picture.
After updating your profile picture it will take some time for the changes to reflect in your spotify account. The changes will also reflect on the desktop app.

Once your spotify profile starts using your Facebook profile picture you can change it in one of two ways:

  1. By changing the profile picture from the desktop app (see the steps in the first section of this guide)
  2. By updating the profile picture on your Facebook account.

To stop Spotify from using your Facebook profile picture, disconnect Facebook from your Spotify account.
