To change the name of an iOS app in Xcode, you need to update the display name or bundle name in your app's project settings. Here's a step-by-step example of how to do this:

  1. Open Xcode: Launch Xcode and open your iOS project.

  2. Select Your Target: In the Xcode project navigator, select the target for which you want to change the app name. This is typically under the "Targets" section in the left sidebar.

  3. Update the Display Name:

    • Click on your target to open the target settings.
    • Go to the "General" tab.

  4. Change the Display Name:

    • Find the "Display Name" field under the "Identity" section.
    • Modify the value in the "Display Name" field to the new name you want for your app.


  5. Save the Changes: After you've updated the display name, Xcode may ask you to save the changes. Click "Save" or "Save All" to confirm the changes.

  6. Clean and Build: It's a good practice to clean and rebuild your project to ensure that the changes are applied correctly. You can do this by selecting "Product" from the top menu and then choosing "Clean" and "Build" from the dropdown.

  7. Run the App: Build and run your app on a simulator or device to see the updated app name in action.

By following these steps, you can easily change the name of your iOS app in Xcode. Remember that the "Display Name" is what appears under your app's icon on the home screen of the device, so changing it will update how the app is labeled to users.
