We had a user that used an ampersand (&) in their app name. Everything seemed fine until we attempted the iOS build. At this point the app identifier feild did not like having the ampersand. We removed it and completed the build using MABS 6.2.
When the app completed, the download QR code would open the download/install page in iOS but when clicking install. . . Nothing! This is where I should mention, andriod was fine the whole time so the group who developed it was limping along.
I discovered the issue with the name when I cloned the module and it worked all the way through on the first build. I renamed the original app removing the ampersand and it worked.
Is this a bug that should be reported? Has anyone else experienced stuff like this?
Hi Brett,Indeed having a special char in package-name/app-identifier is no way allowed.Android says:A package name for the Android app. The name may contain uppercase or lowercase letters ('A' through 'Z'), numbers, and underscores ('_'). However, individual package name parts may only start with letters.iOS says:The bundle ID string must contain only alphanumeric characters (A-Z, a-z, and 0-9), hyphens (-), and periods (.).
