Screen titles are not working in Android studio

Question

I tried to change default Screen Title in an android manifest file by adding android:label="Title name" in each activity.it is not working.

<activity android:name=".MainActivity" android:label="My Profile">
    <intent-filter>
        <action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN" />
        <category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" />
    </intent-filter>
</activity>
<activity android:name=".Work" android:label="Work Experience"></activity>
<activity android:name=".Educaton" android:label="Education"></activity>
<activity android:name=".Profilephoto" android:label="My Profile Photo"></activity>

Try setTitle by itself, like this:

   public View onCreateView(LayoutInflater inflater, ViewGroup container,
                             Bundle savedInstanceState) {
    View v = inflater.inflate(R.layout.fragment, container, false);
    getActivity().setTitle("My Title");
//...
}

Just an FYI, you can optionally do it from the XML.

In the AndroidManifest.xml, you can set it with

android:label="@string/my_activity_label"

Example:

 <activity
    android:name=".FirstActivity"
    android:label="@string/first_activity_title" >
    <intent-filter>
        <action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN" />

        <category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" />
    </intent-filter>
</activity>
