> Since space is limited, we recommend a **short one or two word** app name

Is it true, we should only make the application name only one or two words? If it is more, what will happen?

Look at the apps on your phone. How long are their names? What are some popular apps called? I can think of Twitter, Facebook, Netflix, etc. All one word.

You wouldn’t want the app name to be so long that it got cut off on the phone display.

Oh… So the app name will be cut off on the phone screen if it’s too long, right!
