The app icon is set as android:icon="@mipmap/ic_launcher" in application section in AndroidManifest.xml . Check out all mipmap folders and update the icon to the one you need (It's currently showing default icon from mipmap-anydpi-v26 folder which is created when you create a project in AndroidStudio).

The app name is a label from your launcher Activity. In AndroidManifest.xml find an activity with intent-filter <category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" /> and set a label you need android:label="@string/app_name".

The app can't be opened because of some issue in your code. To keep track of crash issues you can use tools like Crashlytics.
