Where to find your Homescapes username in the app

Your Homescapes username appears in the top left corner of the main game screen, just above your level number. Open the app, wait for the game to load fully, and look at the player information displayed near your avatar or profile picture. The username is the name you chose when you first set up your account, and it stays the same unless you change it through the game's settings.

If you cannot see your username clearly on the main screen, tap your profile icon or avatar — usually located in the top left or top right corner depending on your device. This opens your profile page, where your username appears prominently at the top, along with your level, coins, and other account details.

Key Takeaways

  • Your Homescapes username displays in the top left corner of the main game screen above your level number.
  • Tapping your profile icon or avatar opens a full profile page where your username is clearly visible.
  • The username you see in Homescapes is the same one linked to your Facebook, Google Play, or Apple ID account if you connected one.
  • You can change your username through the settings menu if you want a different name for your account.

Checking your username through account settings

Open Homescapes and tap the settings icon, usually a gear symbol in the bottom right or top right corner of the screen. Scroll down until you see account information or profile settings. Your username will be listed there along with details about which platform your account is connected to — Facebook, Google Play, Apple ID, or a standalone Homescapes account.

If you linked your Homescapes account to Facebook or another social platform, your Homescapes username may match your social media username, or it may be different depending on how you set it up. The settings menu shows exactly which account is connected and what name is associated with it in the game.

Finding your username if you linked a social account

When you connect Homescapes to Facebook, Google Play, or Apple ID, the game may use your social account name or a separate Homescapes username. To see which one applies to you, go to settings and look for the account connection section. It will show you the name of the linked account and confirm whether that is the name displayed in your game profile.

If you connected through Facebook, you can also check by tapping the Facebook icon in the settings menu. This shows you which Facebook account is linked and what name appears in Homescapes. The username in the game is what other players see when you interact with them or appear on leaderboards.

What to do if you cannot find your username

If your username is not visible in the usual places, try closing and reopening the app completely. Sometimes the profile information takes a moment to load, especially on slower connections. Force close Homescapes by swiping it away from your recent apps, then open it again and wait for the game to fully load before checking the top left corner or your profile page.

If you still cannot locate your username after restarting, check whether you are logged into the correct account. On Android, go to settings and verify which Google Play account is active. On iPhone, check that you are signed into the correct Apple ID. If you have multiple accounts on your device, you may be logged into a different Homescapes profile than the one you expected.

Changing your Homescapes username

To change your username, open settings and look for a profile or account section that allows edits. Not all Homescapes accounts have the option to change the username directly in the app — it depends on how your account was created and which platform it is linked to. If you created a standalone Homescapes account, you may see an edit button next to your username. If your account is linked to Facebook or Google Play, you may need to change the name through that platform instead.

Tap the edit or pencil icon next to your username if it appears. Type your new username and confirm the change. The new name takes effect when ready in your game profile and on leaderboards. Keep in mind that some games limit how often you can change your username, so check whether there is a cooldown period before attempting another change.

Understanding usernames versus display names

Homescapes uses a username as your account identifier, which is what appears in the game and on leaderboards. This is different from a display name, which some games allow you to change separately. In Homescapes, the username and display name are typically the same thing — the name you see on your profile is the name other players see when they encounter you in the game.

If you linked your account to a social platform, the username may be pulled from that platform's account name. Changing your Facebook name or Google Play name does not automatically update your Homescapes username, so you may need to update it separately in the game's settings if you want them to match.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I see other players' usernames in Homescapes?

Yes, you can see other players' usernames on leaderboards, in friend lists, and when you visit their gardens or compete in events. Usernames are public information in Homescapes, so anyone playing the game can see your username and profile information.

What if I forgot my username and cannot log back in?

If you cannot remember your username but you know which platform your account is linked to, log in through that platform instead. For example, if your account is connected to Facebook, tap the Facebook login option and sign in with your Facebook credentials. The game will recognize your account and load your profile with your username visible.

Does my Homescapes username have to match my Facebook name?

No, your Homescapes username and Facebook name can be different. When you link the accounts, Homescapes may use your Facebook name as the default, but you can change your Homescapes username separately in the game's settings. The two accounts are linked for login purposes, but the names do not have to match.

Can I have spaces or special characters in my Homescapes username?

Most games, including Homescapes, restrict usernames to letters, numbers, and sometimes underscores or hyphens. Spaces and special characters are usually not allowed. If you want to change your username, check what characters the game accepts before you try to save a new name.
