androidandroid-studioapplication-name

android project name and app name are different

I am doing an android project using Android Studio. My project name is "Policia". I run the project on emulator and it shows another name "LoginActivity". Actually its the launcher activity. How can I solve this??

In the picture, left side is snap shot from studio and right side is from emulator.

Solution

  • In your main activity listed in manifest file see the android:label value

    android:label="@string/app_name"

    Then see string.xml file in resource (res) folder to see the actual String value of app_name. Change it to whatever you desire.

    Main activity will be the one with following intent-filter

            <intent-filter>
            <action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN" />
            <category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" />
        </intent-filter>
