I'm developing iPhone app.

I changed Bundle name in info.plist.
But .app doen't change from <project name>.app.

*.app file is shown in the Products folder on the bottom of the Project Navigator(left side of the screen).

I believe .app file is called bundle and Bundle name should change .app's name.
Am I wrong or am I missing something?

  • thanks. `product name` changed `.app` name. What is `Bundle name` in info.plist? Or why `Bundle name` doesn't work? – js_ Jul 14 '12 at 09:12
  • bundle display name changes only the display name..ie how it appears under the icon in the iphone...usually a variable ${PRODUCT NAME} is set as the default..ie whatever you enter as the product name it appears here also... if u think the answer is satisfactory pls vote up :) – sujith1406 Jul 14 '12 at 09:29
  • thanks. but i know how `bundle display name` works. what i wanna know is how `bundle name` works. do you know that? – js_ Jul 14 '12 at 09:36

I dunno if i am getting your question right !

but if you just want to change the name of the project you can just click on the project name in the project navigator twice with one second gap between the two clicks !!

if you want to change the name of the application the one will appear in the iPhone device

you may write it on the infoPlist.strings as this

"CFBundleDisplayName" = "youAPPName";

i hope that helps

  • @MOthman thanks. but i know both of them. I really wanna change `.app` name. But sujith answered that. And I'll ask about role of CFBundleName(not CFBundleDisplayName) in another question. – js_ Jul 14 '12 at 09:31
