Hi Dave, Thanks for that mate. But yeah that still is a bit inconvinient given that most gmail users may not even be app developers.
Also is it possible to show which of the cases the violation is off? I mean whether if it is an existing gmail ID or an already registered app. Or perhaps a way to atleast talk to the gmail user to get some kind of "Transfer" of the app name... Also by tying app names to gmail user names, doesnt it incentivize spammers to create fake accounts just to prevent a name from being used for an app? cheers Sri On May 13, 6:19 pm, David Wilson <[email protected]> wrote: > Hey Sri, > > For whatever strange reason, App IDs that conflict with Gmail > usernames are reserved by default.
