2 Apps with the same name?

Jun 28, 2012 10:04 AM

Hi everybody!

I finished my work on two ipad-magazines a few days ago (english/german version).

The plan is, to transfer the whole .app package to our customer, who will publish the apps in the Apple App Store himself.

Now, there has been a lot of discussions about the name of the Apps. Our customer wants both apps to have the exact same name. There`s not even a single charakter different.

Now, I seriously doubt, that such thing ist possible. I've never seen two Apps with the same name...?

Could you please confirm that? This customer is driving me crazy...

Thank you very much!

Silly idea, IMO.

I just finished a project for March of Dimes with an English and Spanish version.

English has an English name and Spanish has a Spanish name.

English: http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/my-9-months/id528623198?mt=8

Spanish: http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/mis-9-meses/id525758679?mt=8

Thank you, Bob!

I just need to know wheter it is possible or not... I have had an amount of awful long discussion with my customer about the names last week, and I'm tired of telling him, how silly the idea is.

Personally, I would definitly choose a German name and a english name, but actually, this isn't my decision.

Honestly, I don’t know if Apple will allow it or not but I’m going to guess that they won’t so prepare your “I told you so” speech.
