New App Title (Starting a title with a Number)

Hey guys, i'm brand new to BuzzTouch and very excited to start building stuff! For my first project i'm converting my entire Website into an App (www.1000lifelessons.com). Unfortunately BuzzTouch won't let me start my new APP NAME with a Number. It's got to start with a letter (which will mess up branding, uniformity, and consistency) Has anyone figured out a way to override the New App Title limitations? Other apps out there exist that start with numbers (like 8tracks.com). Any tips or suggestions would be most appreciated! :) (I figure worst case scenario when everything is compiled and completed, perhaps I can just double click and rename the final product - or is that wishful thinking?) lol, thanks in advance.

The app name is not the same as the name you see on the market.

Hi Liontek, @FredT4 is right...what you call it in BT doesn't matter. The name that goes into iTunes can be modified via the BT_info.plist file (and in Xcode itself). The part that determines your app name is this (I believe) : <key>CFBundleName</key> <string>1000lifelessons</string> Thanks, Mark

By the way, before creating your app, sign up for the Early Adopter v1.5 program (http://www.buzztouch.com/account/account_earlyAdopter.php). Way more functionality than with v1.4! Keep in mind, though, that while v1.5 for iOS is fully functional, there are some limitations for Android at the moment. Mark
