I have added a development version and a production version of my Zoom app. Is there any way to easily distinguish them in the Zoom client?

It seems like they share all of the same branding. It would be nice to have at least some difference.

There actually is not, looking into this thank you for bringing this up, I will put in a feature request to create a distinction in App so Developers are not confused.

I second this feature request. Please clarify the development process on your documentation. Show examples of the standards to handle at least a Development, QA and Production environments.

- Do we need to create multiple apps, one per each environment or not?
- What is the differentiation on the “Development” vs “Production” tabs on a given Application? is it useful at all? there is no distinction on the Zoom Client on which environment you’re opening, etc
