What name to choose for the Android package?

Question

Android

Can't find any clear documentation or recommendations on package naming. Now common is this: com(or other).company_name.app_name
Also sometimes used is this: company_name.app_name
I'm the only developer, so I plan to name the package like this: nickname.app_name Would
that be correct? Or is the package name not so important at all and is used only to identify a specific application and you should not bother about this?

Answer 1

The guidelines are correct <personal\company domain>.<app name>, without underscores.
If you are a single developer, this option is enough com.nickname.<app name>, or if there is a github, you can do this. com.github.nickname.<app name>
The package name only plays a role when published to the play market, it becomes a unique application identifier.
