Account & profile settings
How do I change my linked phone number?
In the Kimi App, open Settings → Account Security, then select your linked phone number to start the change.
- Request and enter the SMS verification code sent to your current phone number.
- Enter your new phone number and country code, then request an SMS verification code.
- Enter the code sent to your new number to complete the change.
Both numbers must be able to receive SMS verification codes. Each code is valid for 5 minutes. Overseas accounts cannot switch to a +86 number, and the new number must not already be linked to another Kimi account.
Can I change my linked email or sign-in method?
The Kimi App currently does not offer a self-service option to change your linked email. If you need help with your linked email or sign-in method, please email [email protected].
A linked Google account cannot be unlinked or replaced.
Lost access to your original sign-in method?
Please email [email protected] for help. Our team will review your request and may ask for information to verify account ownership.
Not receiving a verification code?
Try the following troubleshooting steps:
- Confirm that the email address or phone number you entered is correct.
- The verification code may take a few minutes to arrive — please be patient.
- If it hasn't arrived after 5 minutes, click "Resend" to request a new code.
Note: Currently, only supported regions' phone numbers and email addresses are accepted. VoIP numbers and landlines are not supported.
How do I edit my profile and avatar?
Navigate to: Kimi App → Profile → Settings → Personal Info → Edit name, bio, or avatar → Save
Note: Your avatar and display name can be changed up to 10 times within a 30-day period. Please plan your changes accordingly.
