Hello everyone.

Have you ever experienced "A strange name is displayed in the WiFi network list! Pupupup!" When using an iPhone in the city?

This is because the name you gave when you registered your iPhone will be displayed as it is. Even if it is embarrassing to be seen by people, such as your own name that you entered secretly, it will be displayed. It's fine if you can only connect to your iPhone with your own PC, but with tethering and AirDrop, you can see it from other people as the iPhone name of the person you want to connect to.

So today I'll show you how to rename your iPhone so that you don't have that experience.

First, let's see how it actually looks. Turn on Settings → “Internet Sharing”.

It will be displayed to the people around you with the name "Tsubasa's iPhone". Let's change this.

Go back to the settings and select "General".

Select "Information" in the general public.

Change the name so that it can be displayed, and you're done.

For example, if you change to "Weekly ASCII", you can see that it has been changed on the Internet sharing screen.

Furthermore, the display has changed properly on the connection side as well.

If you haven't changed it since you purchased it, let's take a look at the settings. Some people deliberately give it an interesting name, but they may unintentionally share an embarrassing name.
