is there a way to change what people see you as? you know, the name that people reply to?
Of course you can! Go to Messenger (top bar), My contact details (drop down menu) and type in your name or whatever you want to go by in the name field. That worked for me!
yep, thats what I was looking for, thanks!
ok, here is another question… can you change how you see your contacts?
ex: can I change my mom’s name from her first and last name to just “mom”?
Yes, again! Click on a contact’s name, go down to view/edit contact details, then a screen will come up where you can put a name in. If you change it here, it will change in your list. There are lots of other things you can do here as well, adding addresses, phone numbers, etc.
Give that a shot!
Sweet, Thanks!
Hey, thanks for asking this question (and for those who answered it as well), I was just wondering the same thing!
You’re most welcome! And, by the way, Welcome to the BigBlueBall! Nice to have you stop by and post this.
the first question is interesting.
Thank you for your answer, PolarBearNPR 😉
