How to change an account in Mobile Legends on Android: Complete Guide

The mobile industry is developing rapidly, and online games are becoming increasingly social platforms where your progress is tied to a unique identifier. In Mobile Legends: Bang Bang (MLBB) accounts play a key role, since they are the ones who store all your heroes, skins and rank. However, situations are different: someone wants to create a new profile from scratch to start their career all over again, while others need to log into an existing account from another device. Understanding how to change an account in Mobile Legendsis a critical skill for any player on the platform Android.

The process of changing a profile is not always intuitive due to the peculiarities of linking data to third-party services such as Google Play Games or Facebook. Incorrect actions may result in loss of access to the upgraded character or inability to log into the system. In this article, we will analyze in detail the algorithms of actions for various scenarios, explain the difference between binding and unbinding, and also consider the technical nuances of working with Moonton passwords. Account ID and Moonton passwords.

Before you begin manipulating data, you must clearly understand the difference between simply changing the user on the device and completely replacing the game profile within the application. If your goal is to just let a friend play on your phone without losing your progress, the approach will be the same. If you plan to permanently switch to another account by deleting the old one from the device, the actions will be completely different. Let's look at the main methods and pitfalls.

Preparing the device and checking the current binding

The first step before any action is to audit the current state of your gaming profile. In Mobile Legends there are several authorization methods, and the further strategy depends on which one is used now. Most often, players use the connection with Google Playsince on smartphones Android this is the most convenient and automatic login method. However, relying on just one login method is risky.

You need to make sure that your current progress is securely saved. Go to the game settings and check the account linking section. If you see a checkmark opposite Google Play or Facebook, this means that the data is synchronized with the cloud. If there is no linking, any reset of the application data or reinstallation of the game will lead to the permanent loss of all acquired property: heroes, emblems and diamonds.

⚠️ Attention: Never delete the application or clear its data until you are 100% sure that your current progress is tied to an external service. Local saving on your phone is extremely unreliable.

It is also worth checking whether Guest mode is activated on your device. Playing in guest mode (Guest Account) is a temporary solution that does not allow you to fully participate in ranked matches and is fraught with data loss when changing devices. If you are playing as a guest, the first thing you need to do is link your profile to a permanent service.

Exit method through application settings

The easiest and safest way to change user without affecting the system settings of the smartphone itself is to use the built-in exit function. This method is ideal if you want to quickly switch between your main profile and a friend's profile, or if you plan to log in with a new username while still being able to quickly return.

To perform this operation, launch the game and wait until the main screen (lobby) loads. In the top right corner you will find your avatar and level icon. Clicking on it opens the profile menu, where in the lower left corner there is a gear-shaped settings button. By going to the section Basic (General), you will see a button Switch Account (Change account).

After clicking on this button, the game will prompt you to select a login method for the new profile. The system will automatically terminate the current session and redirect you to the login screen. Here it is important to carefully select the desired service: Google Play, Facebook, VK (for CIS regions) or data entry Moonton. Selecting the wrong service will result in the creation of a new empty profile instead of entering the correct one.

• 🔹 Click on the avatar in the lobby to open the menu.
• 🔹 Select the gear icon in the corner of the screen.
• 🔹 Find the button Switch Account and confirm action.
• 🔹 Select a service to log into a new profile.

This method does not require clearing the cache or reinstalling the game, which makes it most preferable for regular use. However, it is worth remembering that on some devices with active synchronization Google Play Games the system may try to automatically pull up the last used Google account, ignoring your choice, if you do not switch the user in the phone's system settings.

Changing Google Play account at the system level

Often a situation arises when the game stubbornly launches not the profile that you selected inside the application, but the one that is active in the system Android. This is due to the deep integration of services Google. If you want to radically change the game account linked to Google, you need to change the main Google Play user on the device itself.

Go to the general settings of your smartphone and find the section Accounts or Users and accounts. This displays a list of all Gmail mailboxes added to your device. You need to select the account you want to play under and make it the main one, or delete the old account from the system if it is no longer needed. After this manipulation, when starting Mobile Legends the game will ask for login confirmation through the new Google profile.

It is important to understand the difference between deleting an account from the device and completely deleting it from the network Google. Deleting from the phone settings only removes synchronization with this particular device, but saves all data in the cloud. This is a safe procedure. However, if you delete your account completely through the browser, you will lose access to all Google services, including progress in games.

⚠️ Attention: When you delete your Google account from your phone settings, all local data synchronized only with this profile (contacts, call history on this device) will be deleted from the phone. Make sure that important information is saved in the cloud.

After changing the system account, it is recommended to completely close the application Mobile Legends through the multitasking menu and start it again. This will force the game to re-read the current system credentials and offer authorization under a new name.

Using a Moonton account for independent login

The most flexible and operating system-independent way to manage a profile is to use the developer’s own service - Moonton account. Unlike linking to Google or Facebook, this method allows you to enter the game on any device (Android, iOS, PC emulators) by simply entering your username and password, without having to add new mailboxes to your phone settings.

To take advantage of this benefit, you must first register a Moonton account if you do not already have one. This can be done directly in the login menu in the game by selecting the appropriate icon and following the instructions for creating a password and linking an email. After creation, you will have a unique User ID, which is your permanent identifier in the game ecosystem.

The process of changing an account through Moonton is as follows: in the login method selection menu, you select the Moonton icon, enter your data and get to your profile. If you want to switch to another Moonton account, just press the exit button inside the game menu and enter the details of another user. This eliminates the need to log in/log out of the Android system settings.

Clearing application data as a radical method

Sometimes standard methods for changing an account do not work due to software glitches, caching of old data, or authorization errors. In such cases, users resort to a radical method - completely clearing application data. This method returns the game to the “first launch” state, forcing it to ask again which profile you want to log in under.

To perform this procedure, go to the settings of your smartphone, select the section Applications and find it in the list Mobile Legends: Bang Bang. Go to subsection Storage or Memory. There you will see two buttons: "Clear cache" and "Clear data" (or "Reset"). It's the second option you need. After confirming the action, all local game settings, including remembered logins, will be deleted.

The next time you start the game, it will load the resources again and offer a screen for selecting a server and login method. This is a guaranteed way to break the connection with the previous automatically pulled account. However, this method has its drawbacks: you will have to re-download resources (maps, skins), which can take time and traffic, and also re-customize controls and graphics for yourself.

• 🔸 Open Android settings and go to the applications section.
• 🔸 Find Mobile Legends in the list of installed apps.
• 🔸 Select "Storage" and click "Clear data".
• 🔸 Launch the game and select a new authorization method.

⚠️ Attention: Clearing data does not delete your progress on the server if the account has been linked. But if you played in Guest mode without being linked, data clearing will permanently destroy your profile.

Solving problems with binding and login

When changing accounts, players often encounter errors that can cause panic. The most common problem is a message that the account is already linked to another ID. This means that the email or Facebook profile you selected is already being used to save another character's progress in the database Moonton. The security system prohibits linking one external service to two different game profiles at the same time.

If you see an authorization error or endless loading after trying to change your account, check the stability of your Internet connection. Sometimes authentication servers Google or Facebook may not be available in your region. In such cases, using a stable Wi-Fi connection or switching to mobile data helps. It is also worth checking whether the version of the application is outdated, since old clients may not work correctly with new security protocols.

Another difficulty arises when purchasing accounts from third parties. If you purchased a profile and cannot log into it, most likely the previous owner did not unlink his services or changed the password. In such a situation, the only legal way is to contact support through the form in the game, providing receipts for the purchase of diamonds (if any) or other proof of ownership, but the chances of success in the case of purchased accounts are extremely low.

Remember that the rules of the game strictly prohibit the transfer of accounts. Using other people's accounts can lead to permanent blocking (ban) of both the old and new profile. It is safer to create your own path in the game than to risk access to your device and personal data.
