How to Remove Your Own Contact Poster

If you want to change or get rid of the poster that shows up when you call other people, here is what to do.

Step 1: Open Your Contact Card

First, open the Contacts app. At the very top, you will see My Card. This is your own contact info. Tap on it to open your details.

Step 2: Edit Your Contact Poster

On your contact card, you will see your current Contact Poster at the top. Tap the Edit button in the top right corner. Then, tap on the poster image itself to change it.

Step 3: Delete or Replace the Photo

You will now see options to change your poster. To remove a photo:

• Tap the photo icon again.
• You can choose Take Photo, Choose Photo, or Monogram.
• To delete the photo completely, select Monogram. This replaces the photo with a simple letter circle.
• You can also create a Memoji if you prefer.
• Once you pick a monogram or Memoji, tap Done in the top right, then tap Done again to save.

Your Contact Poster is now updated. The old photo is gone.

How to Remove a Contact Poster for Someone Else

If you set a poster for a friend or family member in your contacts and want to remove it, the process is just as easy.

Step 1: Find the Contact

Open the Contacts app and find the person’s contact card. Tap to open it.

Step 2: Edit Their Contact Poster

Tap Edit in the top right corner. Then, tap on the Contact Poster image at the top of their info.

Step 3: Change Their Poster Settings

On the poster editing screen, you have the same choices.

• Tap the current image.
• You can pick a new photo from their contact pictures, or choose Monogram.
• Selecting Monogram will remove the custom photo poster and replace it with their initials.
• Tap Done to save the change.

Now, when that person calls you, their poster will show the monogram instead of the old photo.

A Quick Note on iPhone Accessories

You mentioned some links for iPhone gear. For anyone looking to protect their new iPhone, it’s always a good idea to use a case and a screen protector. A MagSafe-compatible case can also make it easy to use cool accessories like wallets and chargers.

I hope this guide helped you clean up your Contact Posters! It’s a simple way to keep your call screen looking just the way you want.
