In the app. You can use the buttonless template application as a reference.

No, I am not indeed.

Should this be in the booloader or the app ?

Are you initializing the SVCI interface at the beginning of your main() function as in the buttonless template example?

    // Initialize the async SVCI interface to bootloader before any interrupts are enabled.
    err_code = ble_dfu_buttonless_async_svci_init();
    APP_ERROR_CHECK(err_code);

Changing the advertisement is optional, but is often used with iOS because core Bluetooth doesn't let you specify an address to connect to.

Relevant SDK documentation:

Setting new advertisement name

(when disabling "Alternative Advertising mode" in NRF Connect on iOS, the DFU works correctly. It's also OK on Android)
