Reese HACOS瀚客 2020-08-18


Every time WeChat gets upgraded, many users always wonder when they can change their WeChat id again. Now finally, this feature is open to the Android users and soon will be available to the iOS users. 


WeChat ID is unique identifiers a user account. It is used for logging in and allows users to easily find you by searching your WeChat ID. 

However, users could not change or remove a WeChat ID if set once. That means, if you've set your ID with your private information or you just don't like it anymore, sorry, all you can do is to take it. 


No matter for information security reasons, or for personal preferences, many users want to change the ID again. 

△ "I was so stupid to set the ID with my full name and phone number!" 

△ "I want to change my ID because I've set it with my ex's name... That's embarassing!" 

Now, WeChat finally introduces the feature. It is currently available in the latest version (WeChat 7.0.15) for Android, and will be launched on iOS soon. 


According to the WeChat team, WeChat ID can only be changed once per year. If you've set your ID within a year, you will be able to change it on the expiry.
