Hello,
Thank you for contacting Rank Math and bringing your concern to our attention. I’m sorry for any inconvenience this issue may have caused you.
You can verify the title and description of your page by using these tools to ensure that they are already set:

If they are already set in the page’s source code, please note that Google sometimes ignores the custom meta info altogether and shows something from the page’s content that matches the search intent better.
Here’s a link for more information:

Looking forward to helping you.
Hello,
It is a pretty common thing with Google these days. It happens with 70% of the results and we even have a KB dedicated to this problem and a few solutions from the link we shared above.
Also, Google has made some changes to their algorithm which automatically changes the titles, discarding the one you have set in your SEO title meta tag. This happens regardless of the SEO plugin you are using.
We have covered this Google update here:

Looking forward to helping you.
Hello Reinelle,
So there is no way I can fix it, it will end up updating itself? Is it better to unify my titles with the script instead of the bullet?
Thanks
Hello,
Unfortunately, we cannot control how Google displays titles in search results, but unifying your title separators (e.g., using dashes instead of bullets) could improve consistency and potentially influence how Google interprets your content.
Make sure your preferred separator is applied across all titles in Rank Math settings and resubmit your sitemap in Google Search Console. Over time, Google may update the displayed titles accordingly.
Don’t hesitate to get in touch with us if you have any other questions.
