By renaming the App, did you see any issues with Dashboards/Alerts or searches under the Renamed App ?
I see below config under the App name which I want to rename, so I guess I need to rename the folder name order_services and restart Splunk cluster. Will this work or I have to do any other changes ?
-bash-4.1$ cd /app/splunk/etc/shcluster/apps/order_services/local
-bash-4.1$ ls -ltr

-rwxr-xr-x 1 app app 28 Nov 20 2015 app.conf
-bash-4.1$ cat app.conf

I couldn't rename my deployed app just by changing the name of its directory. The deployment server kept failing to start after restarting splunk
. I created a new barebones app, copied all of /local/
from the old app to the new app, disabled the old app, then deleted its directory. That worked okay for me.
Things you need to consider:
$SPLUNK_HOME/etc/users/<app>/local/<config>.conf
