The iPhone displays a name primarily for identification purposes on networks and for services like AirDrop and Personal Hotspot. You can "enable" your name by setting a name for your iPhone.
Here's how to change the name of your iPhone:
- Open the Settings app: Find the Settings app on your iPhone's home screen and tap to open it.
- Tap General: Scroll down and tap on "General."
- Tap About: In the General settings, tap on "About."
- Tap Name: You'll see the current name of your iPhone at the top. Tap on "Name."
- Enter a New Name: A text field will appear. Type in the name you want to use for your iPhone.
- Tap Done: Once you've entered the new name, tap "Done" on the keyboard.
Your iPhone will now be identified by the new name you entered. This name will be visible to other devices when using features like AirDrop, Personal Hotspot, or when connecting to certain networks.
