You can overwrite this identity if your app uses a different one on the Google Play Store or Apple App Store by giving values for androidPackageName and/or iosPackageName.
For iOS: You must specify iOSAppStoreCountry to the two-letter country code of the Software Store you want to search if your app is only accessible outside the India. A list of ISO Country Codes can be found at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ISO 3166-1 alpha-2.

iosPackageName: 'com.your.IOSpackage',
androidPackageName: 'com.your.Androidpackage',
