Renaming app name

In my app - i'd like to rename my app for separate variations.

For Android, can I rename the app_name resource at

.\platforms\android\src\main\res\values\strings.xml

Is that the right place?

Ideally I would like the apk file to be the same - but I can rename that later.

to me it's that file :

.\app\App_Resources\Android\src\main\res\values\strings.xml

but then you'll have to quit all processes after uninstalling the app from emulator/device... So the next time you execute "tns run plateform" it'll rebuild reaching the names set in the strings. You have control over : Icon name, APP Title name (the action bar title) Cheers

Do you have the folder App_Resources under folder App? If so, change the app name at .\app\App_Resources\Android\values\strings.xml. The one that you change in .\platform will get override by this one every time you build the app
