The concept behind the new Apple iOS 17 Contact Posters is simple: instead of displaying whatever name you\u2019re stored as on a friend\u2019s or family member\u2019s phone, Contact Posters allow you to customize the image and name that people see when you call.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This gives you the luxury of not only changing your name but also adding a full-screen photo or memoji and other effects to help you see who\u2019s calling at a glance. In turn, it will appear on any iPhone running iOS 17 when you call them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It\u2019s a cool new feature for iPhone users who have installed the iOS 17 update, but in typical Apple fashion, you won\u2019t be prompted to enable it. Instead, you\u2019ll have to figure out how to set up your Contact Poster yourself after you have installed iOS 17.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Fortunately, you no longer have to figure that out on your own. In the next few paragraphs, I\u2019ll walk you through exactly what you need to do to set up a Contact Poster in iOS 17. I will also provide you with the information you\u2019ll need to navigate other related iOS 17 features, like the NameDrop<\/a>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Let\u2019s set the ball rolling\u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n

How To Set Up Contact Poster iOS 17: Overview<\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

With iOS 17, Apple has added a number of new features to the iPhone, one of which is Contact Poster, which allows you to create your own digital calling card using images, colors, and text.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Here\u2019s how it works: when you call someone from iPhone to iPhone and are in their contacts, your Contact Poster appears on their screen. It replaces the previous much smaller notification and thumbnail picture and allows you to be more creative with how you want to appear to your friends, family, or colleagues.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

While setting up your Contact Poster, you can also modify your Apple ID avatar to reflect the poster. If you go into Settings on your iPhone or Mac, for example, you\u2019ll notice that you can change your profile picture to match whatever you\u2019ve set up as your Contact Poster, whether that\u2019s a new image you\u2019ve taken or a specific Memoji.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
