[Q] Changing details on whatsapp contact

[DoriGuy]

Hello:
When I'm editing details of contact at the phone book I see that the person have a connection with whatsapp and I can see the nickname that I saved him at the beginning, and now I want to change this nickname - how do I do it?

from the phone book it not editable, from the whatsapp there is no access to this information.

what is the way?

Thank you,

You have to rename the contact in your phonebook. There actual name that linked with the normal phone number. Then refresh whatsapp

i did "Separate" at the phone book and it's disappear and i cant "join" them together.
i changed the name of the contact in my phone book and then there was 2 contacts with the same number and different names so i "join" them together.
how do i refresh the whatsapp?

In the whatsapp contact list hit the option button next to your home buttom and a refresh option should be one of the options, refresh contact list.

I understand you and i tried this and it didn't succeed (the old nickname still stay at the phonebook) so i uninstalled whatsapp and than install it again.
Thank you anyway

That's weird, I'm sorry I couldn't help. You did mean contacts nickname not your nickname on whatsapp right?

I mean when i'm editing contact at the phone book it's shows that he connected to a contact from whatsapp (same contact and jt' right and good) but the name of the contact that the phone book shows from the whatsapp is the first name that i typed when i saved the contact at the phone book.
Thank you
