How to change Android App Name and ID of an existing application?


I have two Android projects in Eclipse. I copied the one project from the other, then changed the app name (in strings.xml) and the project name (in Eclipse).

But now there is a problem: When I run either of the applications in the emulator, the other one gets lost (maybe overwritten?). So I guess that there is another setting I have to make, so that Android recognizes the two apps to be different?

Thanks!


Solution

  • Package name (in java).

    The app name is also in the manifest, although I don't think that needs to be unique, but still would be good to change it for clarity.
