How to Rename Your Apple AirTag

Did you end up making a typo while setting up your AirTag? Or just want to change its name after the initial setup? Here’s how you can rename your AirTag in just a few simple steps

Apple has released the AirTag, and the first orders have already made it into customer’s hands. Setting up an AirTag is simple and easy. Just bring it near to your iPhone, after which it becomes visible in the Find My apps across your Apple devices, which is much like Apple AirPods. Then, give it a name by either choosing a pre-defined one or giving it a custom name.

Apple’s pre-defined list of naming an AirTag includes generic names like ‘key’ and ‘bag,’ but if you want it to be more specific like ‘car key’ or ‘house key,’ which would make it easier for you to distinguish between different AirTags, you can easily rename your Apple AirTag.
