How do I change the name of my app on my KMM project with Android Studio?

Question

I created a project and by default it runs and shows the package name/bundle id of my project, is there a way to change it with Android Studio?

I've changed the icon on AppIcon.appiconset/res folders, but I don't know how to change the name of my app. On Android its just by creating the string.xml and adding the reference on my AndroidManifest.xml res, but on iOS is my problem. btw I need to do it just by using Android Studio.

Answer 1

You can open Config.xcconfig in Android Studio and change the APP_NAM field. Then close android studio and run ./cleanup.sh in your terminal. You should see the the new name when you build the app on iOS.

Answer 2

To change your app name:

If you have not opened the project in Android Studio yet, you can change the APP_NAME option in the iosApp/Configuration/Config.xcconfig file directly in any text editor.

If you've already opened the project in Android Studio, do the following:

Close the project.

In any text editor, change the APP_NAME option in the iosApp/Configuration/Config.xcconfig file.

Re-open the project in Android Studio.

If you need to configure other settings, use Xcode: after opening the project in Android Studio, open the iosApp/iosApp.xcworkspace file in Xcode and make changes there.
