Change Your Profile Name

Did you spell your name wrong? Do you use a nickname instead? No problem, it's easy to edit your name in Showbie! 

  1. Tap your name in the bottom left corner of the iOS Showbie app. If you're using the web version of Showbie, you'll find it in the top right corner.

  2. Tap Account

  3. Edit your First and/or last name or Preferred Display Name

  4. Tap Save

Changing Your Email Address

Changing your email address is easy. Here’s how:

  1. Tap your name or profile picture in the bottom left corner on the iOS Showbie app. If you’re using the web version of Showbie, you’ll find it in the top right corner.

  2. Tap Account

  3. Enter your email address in the Email box then tap on Save

If you need to use your current email for a different Showbie account, you can use an email alias to free up your email address. Most email providers support “+” aliases, where you can append “+[keyword]” following your username and before the “@” which will still forward email to you correctly. For example, username@school.org and username+teacher@school.org will both send emails to the same address (username@school.org).

Please note that single sign-on options can only be connected to one account and should only be used with your original email address.
