Custom package names

[catsniff]

Will there ever be the ability to choose a custom package name for AI apps? e. g.

com.yoursite.app

instead of

appinventor.ai_yourname.app

?

use one of the App Inventor distributions to get a custom package name

Alright, I will consider using one of those. But will it ever come to the regular AI, or is there an extension or mod?

How to successfully rename the package name of an App Inventor app

I have decided to transfer my project over to AppyBuilder, which seems the easiest method. There is a problem though, and that is that when I open my built app which has multiple screens, it gives me an error:

Error 902: Screen not found:
com.appybuilder.thescreen

Shouldn't the com.appybuilder part be custom.name ?

Hi catsniff

You will need to pose that question on the AppyBuilder forum. It's most likely that AppyBuilder and App Inventor project files are formatted differently, you should not expect one to work with the other's files (though of all the offspring, Appy Builder is probably the closest to AI).
