How to change the App name in Xamarin.Forms?

I have developed an Xamarin.Forms app and I initially named the project ”modelapp”. Now when releasing the Android app I changed the name of the app in ”MainActivity.cs” file to ”MyBooks”.

But when installing the apk file it is still displaying as ”do you want to install modelapp?” And even when the app is crashing it is displayed as ”modelapp.android is crashing”

Where else do I need to change the app name to ”MyBooks” so it everywhere gets displayed as ”MyBooks”?

Open Info.plist file in iOS directory and change your app name.

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE plist PUBLIC "-//Apple//DTD PLIST 1.0//EN" "http://www.apple.com/DTDs/PropertyList-1.0.dtd">
<plist version="1.0">
   <dict>
      ...
      <string>YOUR APP NAME</string>
      ...
   </dict>
</plist>
