  • Greg Burn

WhatsApp is one of the most popular messaging apps out there, thanks to its convenience and straightforward interface. If you are just starting to use it and are not too familiar with its features, you may not know how to change your WhatsApp username. With these simple steps, you will be able to do this in just a minute.

Your username is something that people see when they don’t have you on their contact list. You can decide how this name will show up depending on your preferences. If you have an iOS device, all you have to do to change the username is:

  1. Open WhatsApp on your smartphone.
  2. Go to the Settings located at the bottom of the screen.
  3. Tap on your Profile name that is displayed next to your photo.
  4. Now you can enter a different username by tapping on the existing one.

As you can see, the process is as easy as it gets. The information will be automatically updated once you enter the new username. You can change the name again whenever you want, as there are no restrictions. Once you make this change, any users that don’t have your phone number stored on their devices will see the name that you have selected.
