Change application title in Xamarin Android

Question

I can’t get this off string $projectname$ of my title in an application on Xamarin Android.

I already tried to edit the AndroidManifest.xml and AssemblyInfo.cs and nothing. I looked for this string in the whole project and also not found.

This error started occurring after I last updated Xamarin.

Someone’s been there too?

You can put the label on top of the Activity, like this:

[Activity (Label="Awesome Demo App")]
