@imritpro

This is a bug caused by failure to escape your shortcut string, "Let's Play now". We'll fix this.

In the meantime, here's a workaround: in your web manifest, change your shortcut name from "Let's Play now" to "Let’s Play now" (notice proper apostrophe, rather than single tick mark).

Once you make that change, PWABuilder will be able to generate your Android package successfully. Give it a try and let us know.

It looks like Bubblewrap still has a string escaping issue here, as the shortcut name, "Let's Play now" is not escaped, resulting in a build error.

Thanks for helping me, it works successfully 👍🏻. I was able to generate Android App.
