What is the WeChat ID for?

As I said, WeChat ID is very important. Not only for accepting friends’ requests but also for keeping your WeChat account safe. There’s no doubt that WeChat ID isn’t the only way to protect WeChat, to accept WeChat friends. such as phone number, QR code, email, etc. However, WeChat ID is the key to get your account back when you lost the phone number. or you forgot to unlink the invalid phone number. Besides, WeChat ID is the most efficient way to add friends, accept friend requests.

I’m sure there’re some people didn’t use WeChat ID at all. They didn’t know their WeChat ID after using WeChat for a long time. They gave phone number or QR code to let people add them. But I don’t recommend you do that, as some ways of adding or accepting friends need to be set first. Or you and your friend will find that no matter what ways you’re using all fail.

Basically, searching WeChat ID is the default way to add friends. There’s another thing you should know, WeChat ID was generated randomly. I don’t think who can remember the WeChat ID generated at random. You should change your WeChat ID so that you can remember it easily, it will also to be recognized easily.
