I am creating two apps, let's call them Foo Bar and Foo Bar Pro. When I install them and open iTunes, I see both apps there, but they both say Foo Bar because "Foo Bar Pro" won't fit as a bundle display name. However, in iTunes, I want to see "Foo Bar" and "Foo Bar Pro".
I see a whole bunch of other apps with really long names in iTunes, and it's NOT what the Bundle Display Name shows up as. For the life of me, tho, I can't figure out where that longer name is entered. I assume in the Info.plist.
Can someone help? :-/
The user-visible name for the bundle, used by Siri and visible on the iOS Home screen.
Change the Bundle IDChoose your project from the left side, then your app target under TARGETS, select the General tab and rename the Bundle Identifier.
An app name can be up to 30 characters long.
Bundle name - is folder name, where your app (including executable file and all resources) will be stored (Cool Program. app).
I think it doesn't matter how many characters your name has since it is not of monospaced type. Try "wwwwwwwwwww" (11 chars) & "iiiiiiiiiiiiiii" (15 chars) and see what I'm talking about.
The long name you mention is not part of the App, but rather meta-data in App Store.
You set the long descriptive name after creating the app (or update to the app), but before you upload it. Once uploaded, you cannot edit the name until the next update.
