Here's how to create a contact poster on iPhone. - Author: Rachit Agarwal - Tags: iOS 17, Guide, #Learn, iPhone Every new iOS update adds some customization features to the iPhone, allowing users to personalize their iPhones. With the latest iOS 17 update, the biggest customization is coming to the Phone app. Now, users can create Contact Posters that other iPhone users will see when they call. We love this feature as it lets us express ourselves even before someone picks up our calls. Here is how to create your Contact Poster on your iPhone.

The idea is that everyone will create their own Contact Poster. - You will create your own Contact Poster and share it with your contacts. As more and more iPhone users start using Contact Posters, your contact list will automatically show their Contact Posters. - That said, you can create Contact Posters for your contacts. We recommend doing it only if someone has not added a Contact Poster (a friend who uses Android) or you don’t like someone’s Contact Poster (maybe they made it too obscene). - A Contact Poster is different from a contact photo. The contact photo is what you see in the circle above the name of the contact. - You can create multiple Contact Posters and switch between them as you switch between different lock screens. With these points out of the way, let’s see how you can create your Contact Poster on your iPhone. ## How to create and customize your Contact Posters We have shown how you can create and customize your Contact Posters on your iPhone. You can use the same steps to create and customize Contact Posters for any of your contacts as well. 1\.
