Change a QR-connected WhatsApp profile name

Edit the display name of the connected WhatsApp account.

Before you start

  • Have a QR-connected WhatsApp number and permission to change it.

Step by step

  1. Open Settings > Profile.

  2. Select the QR-connected WhatsApp instance.

  3. Enter up to 25 characters in Profile name. Leave the about field empty if you do not want to change it.

  4. Click Save and check the name in WhatsApp.

Check your result

The name changes when WhatsApp accepts the operation.

What you need to know

  • This form does not change the panel user’s name or the instance’s internal name.
  • The visual success indication alone does not prove that the change was applied; verify it in WhatsApp.
  • For Cloud API, use the connection’s dedicated display-name flow; this form calls the QR connection.
