# How to change the name of an iOS app?

I began an iPhone [project](https://www.mindstick.com/articles/105927/how-to-excel-at-managing-multiple-projects) the other day with a silly [development](https://www.mindstick.com/articles/65309/importance-of-ux-design-in-the-development-of-mobile-apps) [code name](https://answers.mindstick.com/qa/116586/what-was-the-code-name-of-germany-s-invasion-of-the-soviet-union-during-1941), and now I want to change the name of the project since its nearly finished.\
\
But I'm not sure how to do this with Xcode, [trying](https://answers.mindstick.com/qa/93698/6-mistakes-couples-are-trying-to-save-money) the obvious of changing the [application](https://www.mindstick.com/articles/12824/calculator-application-in-android)'s name in the pinfo, [causes](https://yourviews.mindstick.com/view/293/renovation-causes-wastage-of-resources) the [signing](https://www.mindstick.com/interview/497/what-is-delay-signing) [process](https://yourviews.mindstick.com/story/1525/7-important-factors-that-may-affect-the-learning-process) to go wrong (I think...) and my app won't [launch](https://www.mindstick.com/news/2241/what-does-the-launch-of-google-cloud-s-own-node-hosting-service-mean-for-web3-developers) giving me a Launcher error.\
\
I guess I could make a new project and [copy paste](https://answers.mindstick.com/qa/93435/can-i-copy-paste-my-content-at-mindstick) everything over, but it seems so primitive, that I'm hoping for a more civilized solution.\

1. I found it:
2. Go to Targets in Xcode
3. "Get Info" on your project's target (your current silly development name)
4. Search for "Product Name" under "Packaging". Change the value of that what you want the new program name is going to be.
