as far as I know there are few options in order to do so:

first one: click on res-->values-->styles.xml

inside youll have few styles, in your AppTheme style, change it to:

<style name="AppTheme" parent="Theme.AppCompat.Light.NoActionBar">

second one: (in your java class in your onCreate method):

 getActionBar().setDisplayShowTitleEnabled(false);    //or true if you want to see it

there might be more ways to do it, this are the 2 I know of.

Note:

in the second solution you might still get an action bar but without a title, so I highly recommend the first option for you.

P.S:

I saw THIS post, which might help too but Im not familiar with that solution yet.
