change app name in App Store

Question

I have app called "X". It's already approved in the app store. Now I want it to be called "X Pro" for some reasons. What should I edit in plist or ITC to change this name? I guess I should change bundle_name or bundle_display_name, but will it change app name in the App Store or it will change just name on the device?

Create new app in ITC is not an option coz app is already approved. Thanks!

Answer 1

If you have already created the new version in ITC, you can edit your apps name with the following steps:

In iTunes Connect, click your app and you will see versions at the bottom of the page, click "View Details" of your updated version (e.g. 1.1).

Then click "Edit" next to "Metadate and Upoads"

In the pop-up change the text in the field "App Name"

Answer 2

Direct quote from Apple's documentation:

You can change the name of your existing app only when submitting an update of your app binary. If you submit an app name which is already in use within the same geography in which your app is sold, you will be prompted to enter another name.

I just googled it.
