Hyphen in app ID results in bad apk package

Having a hyphen in the app-id result in apk package that will not install with the error "There was a problem while parsing the package" when trying to install on the hadset, and the following error when installing in dev mode using adb install ...

Indeed. Android does not support - in appIDs and they are generally discouraged in AppStream metadata as well (see https://github.com/ximion/metainfocreator/issues/12) I wonder if this issue perhaps makes more sense in fyne-io/fyne than here in fyne-cross?

Agreed, feel free to move as it is fyne package that does this work.

Cool. I moved it over.

What is the best practice in that case? Replace hyphens with underscores?

nvm I see that this is actually already fixed! Maybe this should be closed.
