Setting a custom name and profile photo in iMessage is a great way to make your messages stand out from the rest. It’s also a great way to easily identify your friends and family members in a group chat. And, if you have multiple iOS devices, it can be a helpful way to keep track of which device is which. Here’s how to set and share a custom name and photo in iMessage on your iPhone or iPad.
