Can't change the display name for the app on the mobile device

Can we access your project?

• I give permission for members of the FlutterFlow team to access and test my project for the sole purpose of investigating this issue.

Current Behavior

I built a health app over the past few months that changed project names a few times as we fleshed it out: Asthma v1, Asthma v2, etc. The current working project name is "Asthma v4". It's been on TestFlight for a few weeks and we're ready to push it to review but we need to change the display name to "CHF Asthma".

I changed the Project Name to "CHF Asthma", deployed to TestFlight but app icon text field still said "Asthma v4". I looked through the documentation, consulted ChatGPT, etc and learned that the display name is controlled by App Settings -> App Details -> Display Name.

I made that change, deployed again and the app is still called "Asthma v4" on the phone.

Thinking it might be a cache issue on the phone, I added a new internal tester with a virgin iPhone but the app still shows "Asthma v4".

I'm not sure what else to try. Any help?

Expected Behavior

I expect the app's title text to be whatever is in App Settings -> App Details -> Display Name.

Steps to Reproduce

1. Change App Settings -> App Details -> Display Name
2. Deploy to App Store
3. Download app via Testfliight to iPhone 15
4. Name is unchanged

Reproducible from Blank

• The steps to reproduce above start from a blank project.

I had a look at your project, and it seems that the Info.plist and AndroidManifest.xml files are unlocked. When those files are unlocked or manually modified, FlutterFlow isn’t able to automatically update them.

To apply the new app name, you’ll need to update those files manually inside your custom code:

• Info.plist → Update the CFBundleDisplayName
• AndroidManifest.xml → Update the android:label

Once you adjust those values, your app should reflect the new name correctly.
