To add a friend on FC Mobile (formerly FIFA Mobile), you need their exact in-game name (IGN) or User ID (UID) to send them a request.
How to add a friend on fc mobile
EA Sports FC Mobile, previously called FIFA Mobile, lets you connect with friends using their in-game name or User ID. The process is straightforward once you know where to look.
Step 1: Open the friends menu
Log into the game on your device. On the main screen, tap the "Friends" icon in the top right corner. This icon is usually represented by two people shaking hands or a silhouette of a person.
Step 2: Search for your friend
- Inside the Friends menu, tap the "Add Friends" icon.
- On the next screen, tap the magnifying glass (Search) icon.
- Enter your friend's exact IGN (in-game name/username) or User ID (UID) into the "USERNAME" box.
- If multiple users appear in the results, verify their OVR, Level, Division, or league to identify the correct friend.
Step 3: Send the friend request
Tap "Add Friend" next to the correct profile. Your friend will receive a notification and can accept or decline the request. Keep in mind that you can have a maximum of 32 friends on your list. You can also send friend requests to opponents from the post-match summary screen after VS Attack, Head to Head, or Manager Mode matches.
Step 4: Accept a friend request
To accept a request, tap the "Mail" (Inbox) icon in the top right corner of the main screen. Then tap the "Accept" button on the pending request from your friend.
Why can't I add my friend?
If you're having trouble adding someone, check these common issues:
- Tutorials not completed: Both players must have completed the basic in-game tutorials to unlock features like VS Attack and Head to Head, which is necessary for playing with friends.
- Friend list is full: Players can add a maximum of 32 friends in FC Mobile. If either player has reached this limit, new requests cannot be sent or received.
- Cross-platform play is not supported: You can only add friends who play on the same platform as you. Android and iOS players cannot add each other.
You can also add friends from a list of "Recommended Users" based on similarities in account data like Level and OVR. If you're looking for another popular mobile game, you can also learn how to add friends on call of Duty mobile through that game's social menu.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can I remove a friend from my list?
Yes. Go to the Friends menu, find the friend you want to remove, tap on their profile, and select the option to remove or unfriend them. This will also remove them from any cooperative game modes you were playing together.
What if I accidentally declined a friend request?
You can still add that person by sending them a friend request yourself. Go to the Friends menu, tap "Add Friend," enter their username or User ID, and send the request. If they accept, you will become friends.
How do I find my own User ID?
Your User ID (UID) is typically displayed in your profile or settings menu within the game. Look for a numeric code or a unique string of characters associated with your account.
Can I play matches with friends after adding them?
Yes. Once you are friends, you can challenge them to friendly matches, form a team for leagues, and participate in events together. Both players must have the necessary game modes unlocked by completing the basic tutorials.
Is there a way to add friends from social media?
The verified method for adding friends in FC Mobile is through the in-game search using their IGN or User ID. The game does not support adding friends directly from social media accounts.
