Rename Bluetooth Device I saw a post from April 27, 2020 saying they couldn’t rename any Bluetooth devices on their iPhone and said there is no "name" option for the device in Bluetooth info settings…only options to “forget” and “disconnect”. I was having that same problem but found a solution. That post wasn’t allowing any more comments or answers so I thought I would post here. Turns out you must be connected to the device in order to rename it. Simple as that! Settings —> Bluetooth —> Connect to the device you want to rename —> click the i in the circle (info) —> The name of the device will be displayed…Click on it to rename it.

Not all devices can be changed. If you do not see the information in the support document that seanachai51 provided, then it cannot be changed.
