Before we dive into how to rename tags or change emojis, you should know that you can set the default name of the Apple Item Tracking accessory in the initial settings. However, you can always change the name and emoji in “Find My App” in the future. It’s not surprising to note that the use cases for tags will change over time and your preferences. Here, you should rename the label and change its emoji.
