The bundle ID rename saga

Three commits in 5 minutes:

  • 4e67803 rename bundle ID to com.cruiserplus.app
  • 1cc74bd rename bundle ID to com.cruisergay.app, fix RGBA icons
  • 2eed5f8 fix Cruiser+ name in Xcode project

Lesson: Apple’s review process treats cruiserplus and cruisergay very differently. The first review came back asking us to “clarify the app’s audience”; the second flew through. Names matter at the App Store layer in ways developers don’t expect.

Side bonus: Apple’s icon validator rejects PNGs with an alpha channel (“transparency is not allowed for app icons”). One-line convert in.png -background black -alpha remove icon.png fixes it.
