Impact of changing Publisher display name

Question

I will be changing the publisher display name of my Partner Center account from Japanese to English.
If I change the publisher display name, will I have the following problems?
- Wouldn't an app already published stop publishing?
- Can I still use the reserved app name after changing the publisher display name?

Answer 1

Hi,

>>Wouldn't an app already published stop publishing?

You will need to create a new package associated with the new display name. Then update your app in the store.

>>Can I still use the reserved app name after changing the publisher display name?

Yes, you can. But as I mentioned above, you need to update all of your apps with the new display name by creating new packages associated with the new name.

Best regards,

Roy
