I'll explain why this is an issue, I'm creating v1.5 apps for Apple. Then when I go to make an android app (v1.4) BuzzTouch won't allow me to use the app name of the v1.5 apple app. Does anyone have a simple and elegant solution to this problem? Thanks -Brent Title Comments The Issue I'm having is that BT doesn't allow me to use the same name for different apps (I understand why).

Annonymous	edit 04/27/11 06:19 PM (14 years ago) Brent, You can change the app name in Xcode so that it is different then the name on BuzzTouch. It doesn't have to remain the same App name. It's the CFBundleDisplayName name you want to change in the BT_info.plist file. Give it a go. Comments Brent, You can change the app name in Xcode so that it is different then the name on BuzzTouch.

The name doesn't effect the connection to BT database. Comments Brent, Just go to the BT_info.plist file and change the CFBundleDisplayName. The name doesn't effect the connection to BT database.

Brent wants to have two versions of the app, a 1.4 version an a 1.5, with the same name. It will be irrelevant once android is completed for 1.5.
