So, I'm developing a Swing app on Mac.

Unfortunately, there's some text in the upper left corner, and I don't know how to change it.

Anyone know how to change this?

You can change the name from the command line:

  java -Xdock:name="Some Name" ...

or by setting the relevant property early in your program:

  System.setProperty(
    "com.apple.mrj.application.apple.menu.about.name",
    "Some Name");
