Guideline 2.3.7 - Performance(Apple rejecting apps and updates to apps with reference to said apps price)

#1

Just got rejected by Apple trying to update an app I have on the app store. My app name contains the word free, which is now not acceptable by Apple.

Here is their message.

_Your app’s name, icons, screenshots, or previews to be displayed on the App Store include references to your app’s price, which is not considered a part of these metadata items.

Next Steps

To resolve this issue, please remove any references to your app’s price from your app’s name, including any references to your app being free or discounted. If you would like to advertise changes to your app’s price, consider including this information in the app description. Changes to your app’s price can be made in the Pricing and Availability section of iTunes Connect.

Resources

For information on how to revise your app name, please review Renaming a Project or App._

The link they provide shows how to change my apps name through xcode. My question is how can I accomplish this in Corona?

Thanks guys,

Your app name is nothing to do with corona - it is part of your apps metadata in iTunes.  Adapt accordingly.

Unless you are building an app called “match3 FREE” in which case change your app name when you compile in Corona.

I understand corona has nothing to do with my app name. Yes my app name has free in it. I’ve tried changing the name before compile. I get an bundle identifier error. I need to keep my current bundle identifier and just change the name of the app. This is a new restriction from apple. They set up steps to change your app name without changing your identifier through xcode. Check the link.
