I want to set the package name for demo app like com.example.myapp and want to set the package name for full app like com.example.myapp I want to set package name same because their same app but one has full futures.

We have a full app that includes all futures and I also have a demo app for limited futures. Now I want to publish these to apps on Play Store. What should I configure before handing in?

I find About demo and full app but it is more than 3 years ago , and it was eclipse. We are using Android Studio

Question 1: Should I change the package name?

Additionally I want to mention that I don't want to publish one app and put it Extra futures for paid. I want to publish two apps, that one is demo of full app, and another one is full app, such as Vector game on play store

If the answer is changing the package name for making demo app of full app, please let us know We are two friends that working on a project we made, we are waiting your answers

Thank you ALL

  • Aren't you using flavors for separating demo and full builds? If so, you can have a different`applicationIdSuffix` which will allow you to publish both apps under different packages without changing your code. – Nicolas Aug 08 '20 at 02:36
  • Demo app is 1200 line of codes, and Full app is 2300 line of codes. and has a too many futures. But should't know what to do – Rashad Nasirli Aug 08 '20 at 02:40
  • too many people said me that I should publish , with the same package name , because of it is same app, but something i should do different – Rashad Nasirli Aug 08 '20 at 02:42
  • Just use separate package names. Package names don't mean anything in the end, just remember that you can't change them ever without republishing. – Nicolas Aug 08 '20 at 02:44
  • can you please note what is applicationIdsuffix? saying that did you mean that same package name but appname diifferent? – Rashad Nasirli Aug 08 '20 at 02:45

You can't publish 2 apps with same package name. With productFlavors, you can set different package names for different flavors from same code base.

    Just 1 additional letter can make package different from another. Play Store would consider these as 2 different apps: com.my.app1, com.my.app2 – Don Ha Aug 08 '20 at 02:57

    Thank you but what happens if: com.my.app and com.mydemo.app – Rashad Nasirli Aug 08 '20 at 03:00
  • Those 2 will be published and shown as 2 totally different apps on Google Store. You can provide link in App descriptions to link them. For example in Demo app, you provide a link for users to download full app. – Don Ha Aug 08 '20 at 03:04
