Group chat names carry more weight than you might think. After all, we have them all: family group chats, BFF group chats, that semi-stagnant group chat with that one crew you met on a trip five years ago. Chances are that a group chat has brought a smile to your face at least once in the past few years. If anything, they’re the perfect way to keep in touch with long-distance friends.
But let’s cover the basics first: how the heck do you pick the winner from your list of good group chat names in actual chat? It’s not difficult and it only takes a few seconds. Hey, updating the group chat name is actually the perfect move to revive this thread that hasn’t been touched on in a while. If you’re using an iPhone, open the chat and click the participant icons at the top of the screen. From here there is an option to “Change the name and photo” of the group. If you are using an Android phone, open the chat and click “Group Details”. Click on the name of the existing group chat to edit it. If you want to add another layer of personality to your chats, consider adding a photo. (It’s a great opportunity to revisit this ridiculous closeup photo of your brother making a funny face at the age of four.)
