Problems with the name of the app icon, any solution?

I've made in the application. The error comes in the name of the application. I put the correct name in the application (the one in app store), but not the name that appears under the iPhone icon. Right now I can not tell if that name I have to put in xcode, or itunes connect. I would appreciate any help, as the name that I have is rediculo. Thanks for your help ( spanish) He cometido en la aplicación. El error viene en el nombre de la aplicación. He puesto el nombre correcto en la aplicación ( el que aparece en app store ), pero NO el nombre que aparece debajo del icono del iphone. Ahora mismo no soy capaz de saber si ese nombre lo tengo que poner en xcode, o con itunes connect. Agradeceria alguna ayuda, pues el nombre que le he puesto es rediculo. Gracias por vuestra ayuda

That's the name that appears on the icon (on the iphone) I think that is generated when you do the certificates ... However as Mark says in the pdf can be modified.

Hi, @Don Javi...the CFBundleDisplayName is what gives the icon on the device the label that you see. @rgtichy...the best explanation of the bundle ID stuff can be found on the Apple developer site (http://developer.apple.com/ios/manage/bundles/index.action). But, as I understand it, each app needs an app ID in order to share keychain information (among other things) for certification stuff. I use an app ID with a wildcard bundle ID so I can have multiple applications use the same keychain information. This, unfortunately, limits any push notification stuff I might want to do in the future with those apps, as push notification requires a unique bundle seed ID. But, in the simplest terms, if you have no plans for anything like push, you can use a wildcard bundle ID for all your apps, and only have to worry about that one ID. That was probably the worst explanation ever, but I don't have a firm grasp on it myself. Read through the link and let me know what you think. Let's talk this out so everybody can understand it better! Mark
