it's vs It's called

Both phrases are correct, but they serve different purposes. 'It's' is a contraction of 'it is' or 'it has' and can stand alone as a complete sentence. 'It's called' is used to introduce the name or title of something. So, the choice between the two depends on whether you want to simply state something ('it's') or introduce a name ('it's called').
