Change your photo and username
Tap your picture on your profile to change your photo, and the pencil beside your username to pick a new one. CommonYard checks the name is free as you type.
Change your photo
- Tap YOU on the bar at the bottom of the screen.
- Tap your picture at the top of your profile — it has a small camera on it.
- Pick a photo from your phone or computer.
Your new photo shows everywhere at once. Signing in again with Google or Apple doesn’t put your old photo back.
Change your username
- Tap YOU.
- Tap the pencil beside your @username.
- Type the new one. As you type, CommonYard checks it: Available, or Taken · try another.
- Tap Save. Or Cancel to keep the old one.
Good to know
- A username is 3 to 20 letters, numbers or underscores.
- Both are in Settings too: tap the gear on your profile, then Profile & account, then Profile photo or Change username.
- People who tap your name see your profile under your new username straight away.
