This is a duplicated issue. Below is the response to #865
Thank you for your report. You have pointed out that the logo has not changed and the app name is not the title of the app and we recognise where you are coming from. However, we would like to point out the following:
Firstly, the app title need not necessarily be the exact name of the app. For example, AddressBook Level 3 (AB3) application has the product name “AddressBook Level 3” but the title found in their app is “Address App”.
As such, what we perceive as the so-called title is not the exact app name, but a reasonable alternative name that refers to the app. In AB3, “Address App” seems to be it. AB3 is an address book (as in the English meaning of address book) and it is reasonable to us that the word “Address” is a short form for “address book”
.
In our case, we note that our app data_coNdUctorS is an address book app. Thus, having the alternative name as “Address App” remains valid and does justice to what our app is, especially given that the essence of both AB3 and data_coNdUctorS are the same: managing contacts. Moreover, in the first sentence of our user guide in page 1, we specifically associate our app with an address book
data_coNdUctorS is a desktop address book application…
In a similar vein, the app icon image can be used for our app data_coNdUctorS as the app icon shows an icon of the address book, which is in line with the nature of data_coNdUctorS. Was the icon image the brand logo of AB3? It didn’t occur to us that the icon image is the brand logo, it looks like a random icon indicating that this is an address book. Therefore, we did not feel there was a need to change the app title, and the app icon, as compared to other pressing features we had to achieve.
After receiving your report, perhaps it is important to distinguish our application from AB3 and we do acknowledge that. We have noted this report and will improve in the future. The current priority will still be implementing other pressing features rather than this rather cosmetic issue.
[The team marked this bug as a duplicate of the following bug]
[UI] Title of app
The icon could be customised instead of using the original AB3 Icon. Additionally, the app title should be the name of the app.

:question: Issue duplicate status
Team chose to mark this issue as a duplicate of another issue (as explained in the Team's response above)
Reason for disagreement: [replace this with your explanation]
The app name still remains
Address App
(from AB3) even though the name of the product is changed
