The default options set by the author of the tweak are pretty funny anyway, but you can set the names yourself.

To do this you need to find a location/private/var/mobile/Library/Preferences/xyz.xninja.dopesettings.plistusing your system browser (like Filza) and open the .plist file.

When you open it, find the line with the paragraph,you want to rename, and replace the name with your desired name. Do not delete the words "key" as they are used by the tweak to distinguish each item. If you do something wrong, the tweak will stop working.

Here is an example of such a line:

<key>net.whatsapp.WhatsApp</key>
<string>WhatsApp</string>

You can change the name to whatever you want:

<key>net.whatsapp.WhatsApp</key>
<string>Enter whatever you want here</string>

To return the default name, leave the line empty:

<key>net.whatsapp.WhatsApp</key>
<string></string>

Don't forget to respring your device to apply the changes. You might even have to force close and restart the Settings app.

If you like what the DopeSettings tweak can do, download it for free from the BigBoss repository. It works on all jailbroken iOS 10 devices.
