A simple and direct app name that is easy to recognize and matches the App Store listing.
<meta name="twitter:app:name:iphone" content="My App™️" />
While trying to distinguish the app name with a trademark symbol and space, this could lead to issues in identification or display.

Recommendations

  • Consistency is Key
    Ensure that the app name you provide matches exactly to the one used in the Apple App Store to prevent any confusion or errors during app identification.
  • Avoid Using Special Characters
    Special characters or emojis in the app name might not be recognized properly across all platforms or devices. Stick to alphanumeric characters whenever possible.
