Change MATLAB App window title

I created an app (in MATLAB R2023a) using App Designer. I want to change the UI Figure window title from "MATLAB App" to a custom title. How can this be done?

 Accepted Answer

You can do it in two ways:
Programatically: find the handle of your UIFigure component in the component browser and type in your startupFcn:
app.UIFigure.Name = 'Custom name';
Otherwise, see picture and change the Name property:

The programatic method works for me, but in the Component Browser, I do not see the same options that you show.
Oh, I see. If I click in the UI Figure window, then I see the options you show. If I click in the app but outside the UI Figure, then I see the App options as in my screenshot.
