string.replace not only accepts string as first argument but also it accepts regex as first argument. So put _ within regex delimiters / and aslo add g modifier along with that. g called global modifier which will do the replacement globally.

App.filter('underscoreless', function () {
  return function (input) {
      return input.replace(/_/g, ' ');
  };
});
