Where to find your username in the Homescapes app

Your Homescapes username appears in the app's settings menu. Open Homescapes, tap the menu icon (three horizontal lines) in the bottom right corner, then select "Settings." Look for a section labeled "Account" or "Profile" — your username will be listed there alongside your player ID, which is a long string of numbers.

If you are logged in through Facebook or another social platform, your username may be the name associated with that account rather than a separate Homescapes-specific name. The app will show you exactly which account you are currently using in the same settings screen.

Write down both your username and your player ID. The player ID is what Homescapes support actually uses to look up your account if you lose access or need help recovering progress. Keeping both pieces of information in a safe place — a note in your phone, an email to yourself, or a password manager — makes recovery much faster if something goes wrong.

Key Takeaways

  • Your Homescapes username is in the Settings menu under Account or Profile, accessible from the three-line menu icon at the bottom right of the app.
  • If you logged in through Facebook or another platform, your username is the name from that account, not a separate Homescapes name.
  • Your player ID — a long number shown in the same settings screen — is what support uses to recover your account.
  • You can change your display name in most cases by editing your profile, though the player ID stays the same.
  • Save both your username and player ID somewhere you can find them later, especially before uninstalling the app or switching devices.

Checking your account if you are logged in through social media

Many players link Homescapes to Facebook, Google Play, or Game Center rather than creating a standalone account. When you do this, Homescapes uses the name from that platform as your in-game username. Open Settings and look for a "Connected Accounts" or "Linked Accounts" section to see which platform you are using.

If you want to change how your name appears in the game, you will need to change it on the platform itself — Facebook, Google, or Game Center — not within Homescapes. Changes to your profile name on those platforms usually sync to Homescapes within a few hours. This means your Homescapes username will update automatically without any action needed in the app itself.

What to do if you cannot find your username

If the Settings menu does not show an Account section, or if you see only a player ID with no username, your account may not have a custom username set. Some accounts use only the player ID. You can still use either the ID or your linked account name to identify yourself to support.

If you are locked out of the app entirely and cannot reach Settings, look for any emails from Playrix (the company that makes Homescapes) in your inbox or spam folder. These emails often contain your player ID or account information. You can also contact Homescapes support through the app's help menu — tap the menu icon, then look for "Help" or "Support" — and describe your situation. Support staff can search for your account using details like your level, the date you started playing, or any in-game purchases you remember making.

Using your username to recover your account

If you uninstall Homescapes or switch devices, you will need your username or player ID to restore your progress. When you reinstall the app, it will ask you to log in. Use the same account (Facebook, Google, or email) that you originally linked to Homescapes, and your game will load with all your progress intact.

If you cannot remember which platform you linked, your player ID is your backup. Homescapes support can look up your account by player ID alone and help you regain access. Keep this number somewhere safe — a note in your phone, an email to yourself, or a password manager all work well for this purpose.

Changing your display name in Homescapes

Your in-game display name — the one other players see in multiplayer events — can usually be changed from the Profile section of Settings. Tap "Edit Profile" or a pencil icon next to your name, type a new name, and save. The change takes effect when ready in most cases.

Your player ID never changes, even if you change your display name multiple times. This is why support always asks for the ID rather than the username — it is the permanent identifier for your account. If you change your name and later need to contact support, provide the player ID rather than your current display name to avoid confusion.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is my Homescapes username the same as my player ID?

No. Your username is the name you chose or the name from your linked account (Facebook, Google, etc.). Your player ID is a long number that Homescapes assigns automatically. Both identify your account, but support prefers the player ID because it never changes.

Can I change my username?

Yes, you can change your display name in the Profile section of Settings. If you are logged in through Facebook or another platform, you can also change your name on that platform, and it will sync to Homescapes. The player ID stays the same no matter what.

What if I forgot my username and do not have my player ID?

Check your email for messages from Playrix — they often contain your player ID. You can also open Homescapes support from the help menu and describe your situation. Provide any details you remember about your account, like your level or when you started playing, and support can locate you.

Will my username transfer if I move to a different device?

Yes, as long as you log in with the same account you originally used. If you linked to Facebook, log in with that Facebook account on your new device. Your username, player ID, and all progress will load automatically.

Where should I store my player ID so I do not lose it?

Save it in a place you can find later: a note in your phone, an email to yourself, a password manager, or even a physical notebook. The player ID is permanent and never changes, so you only need to save it once.
