How do I change the product name within an Xcode project?

Question

I have an application that I would like to be called IFrames. I've named all of the files appropriately (IFramesAppDelegate, etc.), but when I run it in ad hoc mode it shows up with the name "photoframes" instead.

How did this happen and how do I change the name of the product to match the name I've provided for the project?

Answer 1

In XCode 4, on the Target properties, it is under the "Packaging" section, or you can just search for "Product Name".

Answer 2

Do not set the product name on the project level, since your project can build several different applications. For example on iPhone/iPod touch app, and another iPad app fromt he same sources.

Instead set the product name on the Target. Find the Target in the Group & Files column in Xcode. And select "Get Info" from the context meny, or use the cmd-I shortcut.

In the Info window go to the build tab. Make sure Configuration is set to "All Configurations", since you want the same name for Debug and Release builds. Filter down your options with "product name" to find the option fast, and type away.

Answer 3

In Xcode 5, the Product Name defaults to the variable $(TARGET_NAME) which is linked to your Target Name.

You can change your Target Name by clicking your Project in the Project Navigator, then clicking the target in the list under Targets, and hitting return.
