Question

How to modify the welcome message of a react app.

When I publish my react-app and enter on the page, everything goes fine, but when I add the same page to the my principal android window from the browser and execute it, the app shows a default message with the react logo, a white background and a text saying “Create React App Sample”. Well, I just want to ask if this view it can be changed or if it’s a template unmodifiable.

Thanks in advance!

Hi everyone. I noticed it’s neccesary change the manifest.json of the app. In there we have the icons, titles, themes, etc.
