Where to find the name field in Carrom Disc Pool
Your player name in Carrom Disc Pool lives in your account settings, not in the game lobby. Open the app and tap the profile icon—usually in the top-left or top-right corner, depending on your device. This takes you to your account page, where you'll see your current name displayed prominently.
From there, look for an edit button, pencil icon, or "Edit Profile" option. Tapping this unlocks the name field so you can type a new one. The exact location and button label vary slightly between the iOS and Android versions, but the profile icon is consistent across both.
Key Takeaways
- Your player name is stored in account settings, accessed through the profile icon in the app's main menu.
- You can change your name as many times as you want, and the change takes effect when ready across all game modes.
- The new name appears to other players in lobbies and match histories once you save it.
- If you forget your current name or can't access your account, contact the game's support team through the in-app help menu.
What happens when you save a new name
Once you type your new name and tap the save or confirm button, the change is when ready. Your updated name shows up in the player lobby, in match histories, and on your profile card that other players see when you're in a game together. There's no waiting period or verification step.
If you change your name and then when ready start a new match, your opponent will see the new name in the game room. Replays and past match records keep the name you had at the time you played those matches, so your history doesn't rewrite itself.
Name restrictions and what you cannot use
Carrom Disc Pool enforces content filters on player names. You cannot use profanity, slurs, or names that impersonate other players or the game's developers. The app will reject the name at save time and ask you to choose something else—it won't let you proceed until the name passes the filter.
There's usually no character limit that matters in practice, though extremely long names may be truncated in some display areas. Spaces, numbers, and most punctuation are allowed. If you're unsure whether a name will be accepted, try saving it; the app will tell you when ready if it violates the rules.
Changing your name on different devices
If you play Carrom Disc Pool on both a phone and a tablet, or on both iOS and Android, your account name is the same across all devices. Change it on one device, and it updates everywhere. This is because your name is tied to your account login, not to the device itself.
Make sure you're logged into the same account on each device. If you have multiple accounts (one per device), each one has its own separate name, and changing one won't affect the others. Check which account you're signed into before you change the name if you're not sure.
If the name field won't open or save
If the edit button doesn't respond or the save button is grayed out, try closing the app completely and reopening it. Sometimes the profile page needs to reload. If that doesn't work, check that you have a stable internet connection—the app needs to communicate with the server to save your new name.
If the problem persists, uninstall and reinstall the app. This clears any corrupted cache files that might be blocking the name change. Your account and progress are stored on the game's servers, so reinstalling won't erase anything. After you log back in, the profile settings should work normally.
Contacting support if you're locked out of your account
If you can't access your account at all, or you've forgotten which email or phone number you used to sign up, open the app and look for a "Help" or "Support" option in the settings menu. Most versions have a contact form or a link to the game's support website. Describe your situation—whether you're locked out, can't remember your login, or something else—and include any details you do remember about the account.
The support team typically responds within a few hours to a day. They can verify your identity and help you regain access so you can change your name or make other account changes yourself.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can I change my name back to what it was before?
Yes. There's no restriction on reusing old names or changing your name as often as you want. You can switch back and forth between any names that pass the content filter whenever you choose.
Will changing my name affect my rank or match history?
No. Your rank, coins, trophies, and all game statistics stay exactly the same. Only the name displayed changes. Past matches will show the name you had when you played them.
What if someone else has the name I want?
Carrom Disc Pool allows multiple players to have the same name. You can use any name that passes the content filter, even if another player is already using it. The game distinguishes between players by account ID, not by name.
Does my new name show up in the game chat?
Yes. Any chat messages you send during or after a match will display with your current player name, not the name you had when you started the conversation.
