As many of people found it very bad idea to rename the Walkman app to "Music" I made this little simple app that rename it back to "Walkman" and bring back the Walkman icon

For Xposed users DOWNLOAD HERE
If your device isn't rooted:

This is a little simple app that have the Walkman icon and label and it simply launch the Sony Music app. Just DOWNLOAD and install normally

Will be good if the name inside app changes to "Walkman" and the status bar icon changes to the Walkman icon

The Beta red text will stay there until Sony pushes the final stable version out, it is used for convenience for the developers of the Music app

Tried that and still does not work on Nova Prime.
I even did a reinstall of the launcher and still to no avail.
