Find your app in the list
Here you have (from top to bottom, from left to right):
App name (My test app 1)
Overview - show analytics \ statistic from your app. For now app it’s empty. Here you can select date range, city or specific location.
Content - here we’ll have list of settings for any kind of apps. So for changing any settings you need to go to this tab
Settings - setting for the app itself. Here you can change name, provider, GridApp version or type of app (warning! Most likely you never need to change type of the app. Note: WPA is mistype, it should be PWA)
Builds - list of builds for you app. When you click “Save changes” after you can press “Deploy”. It will create a new build which you can find later in this section. For the new app this section is empty
