Your digital identity just got an upgrade. You can now change your Google Account username (i.e., the part before @gmail.com), which you use to sign in to apps and services like Gmail, Photos, Drive and more. We started rolling this out last year to help your account grow with you.
The ability to change a username is available now for all Google Account users in the U.S. See the Help Center and watch the video below for more details on how to get started.
