Changing the name of your Android device is a simple process that can be completed in a few easy steps. By customizing the name of your device, you can quickly identify it when it appears in a list of available Bluetooth devices or Wi-Fi networks. This article will guide you through the process of changing your phone name on Android.

Step 1: Locate Your Device Settings

First, locate the settings app on your Android device. The settings app is usually represented by a gear icon and is typically located on your home screen or in your app tray.

Step 2: Select “About Phone”

Once you have opened the settings app, scroll down until you see the option labeled “About Phone.” Tap on this option to access your device’s details.

Step 3: Tap on “Device Name”

Inside the “About Phone” menu, you will see several options related to your device’s information. Locate the option labeled “Device Name” and tap on it to change your device’s name.

Step 4: Enter Your New Device Name

After tapping on “Device Name,” you will be prompted to enter a new name for your device. Use the on-screen keyboard to type in your desired name, and then tap “OK” to save your changes.

Step 5: Restart Your Device

Once you have entered your new device name, restart your phone to apply the changes. You can do this by holding down the power button until the power menu appears and then tapping on “Restart.”

Your device will now use the new name you have set. You can verify this by checking the name of your device when it appears in a list of available Bluetooth devices or Wi-Fi networks.

In conclusion, changing the name of your Android device is a straightforward process. Whether you want to personalize your device or make it easier to identify, you can complete the steps outlined above in just a few minutes. With your new device name in place, you can quickly and easily connect to compatible devices and networks.

About Us

Since technology is not going anywhere and does more good than harm, adapting is the best course of action. That is where The Tech Edvocate comes in. We plan to cover the PreK-12 and Higher Education EdTech sectors and provide our readers with the latest news and opinion on the subject. From time to time, I will invite other voices to weigh in on important issues in EdTech. We hope to provide a well-rounded, multi-faceted look at the past, present, the future of EdTech in the US and internationally.

We started this journey back in June 2016, and we plan to continue it for many more years to come. I hope that you will join us in this discussion of the past, present and future of EdTech and lend your own insight to the issues that are discussed.
