How do I register a second android app in HERE freemium or change the name of my first app?

119 Views Asked by At

Last year I created a Freemium account with HERE and managed to create an access key id and secret and amazingly it all works. I have since updated the app and given it a new name and now the maps don't work, even with the second set of keys I generated.

Is it possible to have more than one app in the freemium account and if so how do I do that? Alternatively, can I change the name of the existing App in HERE?

OK, seems like I screwed up somewhere. The maps in the updated and renamed app DO work with the original HERE keys. After many hours of ferreting around on the HERE site and elsewhere I think I can also answer both of my own questions as "No" and "No".

Note - I had used HERE Explorer addition and tested with first 2 sample examples from - https://github.com/heremaps/here-sdk-examples/tree/master/examples/latest/explore/android

We can run two apps with same/different credentials, please follow below steps -

  1. You need to generate and download 2 credentials.properties file from the developer portal. Please see the attached screenshot - enter image description here

  2. After downloading above files you can put those credentials in your app's "Android.Manifest" file, so for 2 apps there will be two "credentials.properties" file, put the credentials in tags -

  1. For every app, your package="com.package.name" should be unique from each other.

  2. Please see screenshot of 2 app's running in my phone -
