How to change name of project in Android Studio

Question

Imported an eclipse project into Android Studio and saved it in a new folder. Changed the package name and everything to new names but the Project's name is still the one from the old project.

How do I change the pointed name into something else?

Solution 1

Try changing the contents of this file: C:\Path\To\Project\.idea\.name

Solution 2

1. Change the name in manifest file. android:label="@string/app_name"
2. There's a build.gradle file inside your app folder. Change the package name from there. Make sure you edit the build.gradle file inside your app folder, not the one in the root of your project.

Solution 3

You can try something like this in your settings.gradle file:

rootProject.name = "YOUR_PROJECT_NAME"

After restarting of Android Studio it will also change text in title bar to YOUR_PROJECT_NAME.
