The name of the app

1 min read

1. App name and The App Match project name

The project name you register when you create your Beautiful App is the name that will appear in your The App Match backend URL. For example, if you created your Beautiful App as “myapp”, your backend URL will be: https://myapp.appmatch.app

Warning:  The name of the project cannot be changed once your The App Match project has been created.

2. Name of the application on the stores

The name of your app in the stores and the name of your project do not have to be the same.
The users do not see the name of your project. They only see the name which you assign to your app when publishing it to the stores.

Attention:  In your Android application, the name of the project will appear in the package name by default (step 1.2 of the Android submission process) and will appear in the URL of your application on Google Play.

For instance, if you call your project “myapp” but your app is actually called “Fantastic App” on the stores, then change your package name (by default it will be “com.myappmatch.myapp”) to “com.myappmatch.fantasticapp”.
After the change has been made, continue with the submission process.

3. Name of the application in the Design menu

This will be the name the users of your app will see on their phone, under the app’s icon.

1. Open “My app” from the left swipe menu of your back office.
2. Click on Design > General design > Icon
3. Write the name of the app under the icon

Warning: The number of characters in that page is limited.
The name you filled doesn’t need to be strictly identical to the one you will register during the submission to the stores. If the name of your application is too long for that page, simply use a smaller alternative name.  

4. Edit the name of the application after its publication

Android:
You  can edit the name displayed on the Google Play store anytime, without having to submit a new version of your app. The URL of your application will, however will remain unchanged.

iOS : 
To edit the name of your iOS application as it is displayed in the App Store,  you must submit a new version of your application in App Store Connect.

Attention: If you also modify the name under the icon in My app > Design > General Design > Icon, you must compile a new version of your application and send an update to the store so that the modification is taken into account (to do so follow these tutorials to update the app on App Store Connect and on Google Play).
