Your new profile photo isn't showing up everywhere
Profile photos take time to sync. Log out and back in on devices showing the old photo to load the new one. If that doesn't work, clear the app cache. Everything updates within 24 hours.
When you change your profile photo, the update happens instantly in your account settings but apps and other devices cache the old image. They won't show the new photo until they refresh. Logging out and back in forces the refresh. Clearing the cache also works.
Risk: Low
