How to use it

  2. Choose a style. Pick short and catchy, clear and descriptive, friendly — or all of them.
  3. Generate and shuffle. Generate names and shuffle for more ideas.
  4. Copy a favourite. Tap a name to copy it. Check the marks for launcher and Play Store length.

Two lengths that matter

A good trick: keep the app's name short ("RecipeBox") and use the longer Play title for a descriptive phrase ("RecipeBox: Easy Family Recipes").

Before you fall in love with a name

  • Search Google Play for it — a near-identical name confuses users and reviewers.
  • Check trademarks in your country; avoid famous brand names entirely.
  • Say it out loud. If people can't spell it after hearing it, word of mouth suffers.
  • Check the domain if you plan a website.

Next step: turn the name into a permanent ID with the Android package name generator, then check your Play listing text with the Play Store character counter.

Private by design: everything runs on your device. Nothing you type or upload here is sent to a server.
