I'm not sure about the best/correct way to rename an app created in React Native for iOS. Some solutions that I found require you to change some of your code, update package.json, run react-native upgrade, and clean up files that use the old name. That sure sounds like the correct way of doing it. But it also sounds like a lot of work, if all you want to accomplish is to change the text that appears under the app icon when installed on device.
What I'm doing instead is to just open the app's Xcode project, click on the root node of the project structure, then the Info tab, and finally just update the value of "Bundle name" from ${PRODUCT_NAME} to whatever hard coded app name you want displayed. As long as that doesn't cause any other problems, I'll just stick to that solution. KISS.
