You may also need to rename the folder in which MainActivity.java and MainApplication.java are stored. For example, app/src/main/java/com/myoldbundle/ should become app/src/main/java/com/mynewbundle/

I am facing issue with changing the Bundle Identifier for IOS. I changed in Xcode (to com.securegate) but when I am running the IOS simulator from Command line (react-native run-ios) then at the end it still points to older Bundle identifier (org.reactjs.native.example.securegate):

Installing build/Build/Products/Debug-iphonesimulator/securegate.app
Launching org.reactjs.native.example.securegate
org.reactjs.native.example.securegate: 49881

Please can anyone help. Thanks.
