Custom Keyboard Name without "KeyboardName - HostAppName" scheme

Question

I have small problem, I have changed Bundle Display Name in info.plist to "MyName", but unfortunately in Keyboard Choice Menu it still shows as "MyName — HostAppName". Is that possible to change something to show "MyName" only?

Thanks in advance! And yes I have searched through entire STO to find anything about that :)

I did change Extension Name in it's info.plist and nothing changes though. — Drwalcore, Oct 19 '15 at 15:39

I too was wondering how to achieve this, especially after Swiftkey was able to have a single name. To do this both the Bundle display name in both info.plist files must be the same.

The moment they are different then they will display with separated string.

I hope this helps.

You can do that by setting "Bundle Display Name" key with value "My Name" in both info.plist files

info.plist file in your keyboard target
info.plist file of you Application

This does not do the trick, because the name still of target is showed in **"MyName — HostAppName"** style – Drwalcore Nov 06 '15 at 16:09
did you change "Bundle Display Name" in the containing app info.plist file to "**My Name**" ?? – Mohammed Elrashidy Nov 06 '15 at 17:29
