Summary

Rename the app display name from "Slash" to "Slash Chat" to improve discoverability and avoid conflicts with other apps named "Slash" on the App Store and Google Play.

Bundle IDs (com.ncwcom.slash) and URL schemes (slash://) stay as-is — only the user-facing display name changes.

iOS

  • ios/Mattermost/Info.plistCFBundleDisplayName: "Slash" → "Slash Chat"
  • fastlane/.env.ncwAPP_NAME: "Slash" → "Slash Chat"
  • App Store Connect app record name (when created)
  • App Store Connect short description / keywords

Android

  • android/app/src/main/res/values/strings.xmlapp_name
  • android/app/src/main/AndroidManifest.xmlandroid:label
  • Google Play listing name (when created)

Notes

  • App icon placeholder already uses NCW Purple — update to final NCW logo when available
  • URL scheme slash:// is fine to keep (used internally, not user-facing)
  • Tracking issue for Phase 4 mobile branding
