Use more human-friendly third party app names

XMLWordPrintable

      Currently, both in the listens payloads and in the 'Listening Apps List', some applications appear with a nice name while others appear with their reverse package name (com.foo.bar). I also notice there is no icon showing in the list for those with the package name.

      For example, I get 'Spotify' and 'ListenBrainz' looking all nice, but 'com.bandcamp.android' for Bandcamp and 'com.brave.browser' for my browser.

      Is there any way to access a more human-friendly name?

      If not, it should be easy and safe to format from the reverse name notation:

      1. check if it starts with 'com.' and remove it
      2. replace dots with spaces
      3. Capitalize Each Word

      com.bandcamp.android -> Bandcamp Android
      com.brave.browser -> Brave Browser
