In buzztouch, just go to your control panel and click Manage Core Properties then Application Name. Change it there. For the actual app, all that info is in the AndroidManifest.xml file, which is in the root folder of the download package you got. Mark Comments Rename in buzztouch, or rename the actual Android app?

The Buzztouch app name is meaningless for the final package name , so use whatever . Fred Comments After you download the Source Code you should always rename the Package Name.

Google does have some standards that they would like us to follow. In general, it should be something like: com.<appname> So, if your app is AZ Fishing Spots (already taken!), you would name it: com.azfishingspots You can also throw in your company name, as we tend to do for iOS, and it would become something like: com.thuderstruck.azfishingspots For Android, I stay with the first example.

Since you're going to rename it, it doesn't matter what name you use. The package name should follow: com.domainname.(additional name if desired).appname Comments I'm referring to the Buzztouch app name.
