Why Android apps URL ID got the buzztouch apps version/name

HI, I noticed that all the apps in the android market place got in the URL ID, the name of com.v1_4 which I think refer to the buzztouch 1.4 is this a must, or it can be changed to the app name and if it can be changed, how can I change it Does this apply to Iphone apps too, if so how can it be changed there too here are some examples: https://market.android.com/details?id=com.v1_4.B4EC39493B23D9340778BE7C.com https://market.android.com/details?id=com.v1_4.BF20CFBEDA05BA9FBFEAB4C1.com

Yes, buzztouch v1.4 apps do use this package name for the Android and iOS projects. Ugly for sure. v1.5 makes this WAY better, you get to determine the package name ;-) You can change this after downloading your project but it's a pain. Eclipse does not make it easy. The idea is that you first change the package name in Eclipse, then EVERYWHERE it's referenced in the project. Takes about :30 minutes usually. Again, pain in the bottie. iOS is a bit trickier. Been awhile since I tried to change the Project Name of an iOS app. Google it maybe? It's the same idea but iOS manages projects totally different than Eclipse.
