# Objective
- Closes#15752
Calling the functions `App::observe` and `World::observe` doesn't make
sense because you're not "observing" the `App` or `World`, you're adding
an observer that listens for an event that occurs *within* the `World`.
We should rename them to better fit this.
## Solution
Renames:
- `App::observe` -> `App::add_observer`
- `World::observe` -> `World::add_observer`
- `Commands::observe` -> `Commands::add_observer`
- `EntityWorldMut::observe_entity` -> `EntityWorldMut::observe`
(Note this isn't a breaking change as the original rename was introduced
earlier this cycle.)
## Testing
Reusing current tests.
