Android Question Cloning an App

Hi,
I created an app called "Home Control", which works fine. I then wanted a second app which is functionally almost identical, but with a different name "Andrews Gate". I want to have both running on the same tablet.

I cloned the first app, and changed the following:
  1. The names of the .b4a and .b4a.meta files
  2. The "Application Label" in the .b4a file
  3. The "Application Label" in the Project Attributes section of the main module
  4. The name of the primary activity in the designer
However at the moment if I compile the second application it over-writes the first, and vice-versa. I've obviously missed something which needs to be changed in the cloned project.

Does anyone know what that is?

Thanks, Andrew

Are all NOT relevant.

Change the Packagename!
