That error ("An application with the same name but different properties already exists") means that AWS SNS is telling us that there's another ARN set up for that app name. The app's name is your title's name in the Game Manager, so the first thing to do is to make sure that's set to the actual name of your title. Next, if that name is a common word or term, you may want to add something to it, to make sure it's unique - like adding your studio name (or part of it) to the game name. Finally, if you're using multiple Title IDs for dev/test/live, you'll need to make sure they're each distinctly named.

What if I uploaded a certificate for sandbox but now want to change it for a production certificate?

Generally speaking, we recommend using separate titles for test versus production. But if you run into this error in the scenario you describe, renaming your title in the Game Manager then re-trying should work.

@Brendan Hi! Apple force developers to recreate push certificates once a year. Always when I am updating the .pem file via Game Manager I have to change the Playfab title's name first. Otherwise an error come up: "Invalid parameter: Name Reason: An application with the same name but different properties already exists".

Is there something you/we can do to stop this? Being forced to rename title once a year is quite strange, don't you think? ;-)
