As you develop your Vega app, make sure the package name matches your Fire OS app for Fire TV. The Developer Console requires all binaries of an app to have the same package name.
If your Kepler app has a different package name than your Fire OS app, here is how to change it.
How to change the package name of a Vega app
In this example, I’m changing the existing Vega package name (com.mycompany.kepler) to the Fire OS app’s package name (com.mycompany.android).
- Change the package name in manifest.toml
- Change the package name in app.json
- Build and run the app, to ensure your app and back-end logic continue to function.
If you need to have a separate package name, you’ll need to submit a new app (not recommended). This will have a negative impact on the customer experience, your existing Fire TV integrations, and may require additional work on your back-end.
