This has come up before, but I'm still not clear.
I published my first app last night. It sunk like a stone. I want to
change its name. I don't want to force the few people who have
downloaded it to get an update.
Simply keep package name unchanged (manifest's package=.. - that's
most important.
Application name (application android:label=...) is just string shown to
end
user.
1. Change the android:label in the manifest to be the new name, and
2. Resubmit it with the same version number
Then the name in the market should change but not force an update.
Is this correct?
Correct. You may also need to manually change app Title in your
developer console
Tried it.
The app name is set in the developer console; doesn't matter what you
use in the app.
Unfortunately, to change anything in the market youhave to re-load
your app, and it checks that the version number is higher before it
will accept the new apk. So you can't rename without also incrementing
the release number.
