If you’re new to the iPhone and want to change the Bluetooth name, specifically on the iPhone 11, this guide will show you how. These instructions will also apply to any other iPhone models as well.
Customizing your iPhone’s Bluetooth name can be quite handy, especially when there are many iPhones with the generic “iPhone” name. You can personalize the name so that your device is easily identifiable on Bluetooth-enabled devices like speakers, headphones, or even other phones.
The name displayed when your iPhone connects to Bluetooth devices is the same as your device name. This is the name other devices see when trying to connect, making it easier for you (or others) to find your iPhone on a list of available Bluetooth devices.
If you’re in a public space or at home where multiple iPhones are present, having a distinct name simplifies identification. This also helps avoid confusion, especially if you have multiple Apple devices.
