Application Name in other languages instead of English only

Hi,
Seems like “Application Name” ("Project Name") can be in English only,
In case of other languages are used the following error displayed:
"Name must contain only the following characters: 0-9, A-z, space, - and _ "

There is no such restriction while generating the application using phoneGap,
Is it only Appery GUI validation? is there other way to overcome this?

Hi Yaniv,

For now this can be in English only, support of other languages is planned in future releases.

This requirement is very common since user wants to have their applications based on their device language.
Can you tell when +-?

Yaniv,

Unfortunately I don't have an ETA. We are researching now. I'll update.

I agree with Yaniv,

Can we export the project to Eclips and make a simple change on the project name and export it again ?

Hello, you'll need to build the final app from Eclipse. As a workaround you can finish your app in Appery.io and then make last changes in Eclipse.
