k I'm bumping up a 7 year old thread.
This is happening to me too and my name *is* correctly notated as the developer at https://apps.garmin.com/developer/dashboard?dashboardTab=1
To be clear, it's visible correctly in the Developer Dashboard but NOT in Garmin Express.
How do I actually get this change to stick? I don't really like seeing the watchface name instead of mine
p.s. I'd imagine this is a bug. I changed my name twice, it stuck to my old name, it's now changed to my new name in the dashboard, but Garmin Express refuses to change. I am compelled to delete my account which doesn't seem like an option just to recreate a new account but I would want the same email. I really hope someone at Garmin can fix this and this can be flagged for the right people to either educate me or make the necessary updates because this is really annoying, even if my apps are all beta.
It might be helpful if you gave us a link to one of your apps and told us what you want your developer name to be, so that we can try to see what you see. (Obviously we can't see your developer dashboard, but we can see what other users would see when they look at your app(s).)
It shows up fine in ConnectIQ, just not Garmin Express. I don't think there's anything you can do to fix it.
But I had to remove the code, so I'll provide a link when I fix some stuff I broke sometime tomorrow. I didn't realize those links are publicly visible.
Yeah I didn’t think there’s anything we can do to fix it, but I was just curious to see the problem for myself. You did bump a 7 year old thread to discuss this, after all.
If it’s only a problem in Garmin Express and not Connect IQ (the store app on your phone or the store website), tbh I wouldn’t worry abt it, although it maybe worth opening a bug report.
Obviously nobody can use Garmin Express to download apps, most ppl won’t use Garmin Express to manage their apps, and none of your users will care that a downloaded app doesn’t show the correct name in Garmin Express imo.
I didn't realize those links are publicly visible
Yes, a link to a CIQ app is publicly visible to ppl other than you, it’s just a normal link to the CIQ app on the store (either the website or the app), there’s nothing secret about it.
These links don’t change if you’re logged in to the website or if you access your own apps via the developer dashboard
