Android Studio: changing the app name

The app name is normally saved in string name="app_name"

To change the app name you should navigate:


CIT_299/week03/src/main/res/values/strings.xml

Where: 
  • CIT_299 - is your project name
  • week03 - is your app folder
  • main/res - is how Android Studio places resources folder
  • values - is you DEFAULT LANGUAGE values folder




Make sure you change any other language you want to support e.g. values-es for Spanish


Next, you should rename the DIRECTORY and MODULE name:


Finally, make sure settings.gradle include the newly named module

include: ':converter', ':week2'

My favorite quotations..


“A man should be able to change a diaper, plan an invasion, butcher a hog, conn a ship, design a building, write a sonnet, balance accounts, build a wall, set a bone, comfort the dying, take orders, give orders, cooperate, act alone, solve equations, analyze a new problem, pitch manure, program a computer, cook a tasty meal, fight efficiently, die gallantly. Specialization is for insects.”  by Robert A. Heinlein
