Zum Beispiel können Sie 2 Bluetooth-Lautsprecher haben, und beide können standardmäßig denselben Namen haben. Und die einzige Lösung ist eine ordnungsgemäße Umbenennung dieser Geräte in etwas viel besser identifizierbares.

Um zu verhindern, dass diese Verwirrung in ein Chaos verwandelt, können Sie einen der beiden unten genannten Schritte oder eine Kombination aus beiden ausführen.

How to Change the Bluetooth Name of the iPhone Connected Devices?

It is not possible to rename most of the Bluetooth devices like speakers, Apple Watches and AirPods as these devices do not have a keyboard.

Fortunately, your Apple iPhone can do that for you, and here are quick and straightforward steps:

Step 2. Connect this device with your iPhone. You can only rename a Bluetooth device after it connects to your iPhone.

Step 3. Once the connection is confirmed, open the Settings app on your iPhone.

Step 4. Locate Bluetooth, under Settings and tap on it.

Step 5. The devices connected now or previous to your iPhone will be listed. The word “Connected” would denotethe currently connected device.

Step 6. Now locate the letter “ i “ on the right side of the connected device, and tap on it.

Step 7. Tap Name, and you will be able to change the Bluetooth name of the iPhone connected device, and tap on Done.

This will rename the device, and now, you can identify this device via any other smartphone or your laptop with the new name you have provided. However, if you are not able to rename the device, then there could be two reasons.

First, the device is not correctly connected to your iPhone. Disconnect and then reconnect and try again.

Second, some device manufacturers do not inculcate the option of device renaming, and you have to stay with the default name for the rest of your life. This generally occurs with cheap and unbranded devices because if the manufacturers did not leave an option for the Name field then, you could not edit it.

Were you able to Change the Bluetooth Name on iPhone?

Any two similar iPhones or any other similar Bluetooth devices must have the same Bluetooth name by default, and that is the reason why the device manufacturers allow the users to customize and rename the device. The worst situation I have ever been in with regards to smart devices is when I decided to replace all the bulbs in my house with their smart counterparts and connected them to Alexa. Honestly, I did not know how to and if these could be renamed, and when someone said “Alexa, turn off the light” and my house plunged into total darkness. But that’s another story.
