iOS app display name ignores space on physical device

App Display Name Ignores Space on Physical Device


**Problem**: CFBundleDisplayName set to "Scepter360 Pharmacy" shows as "Scepter360Pharmacy" (no space) on device home screen, but works correctly in simulator.


**Verified**:

- Info.plist: `<string>Scepter360 Pharmacy</string>` ✅

- Built app bundle: Name is correct ✅

- Simulator: Displays with space ✅

- Physical device: Displays WITHOUT space ❌


**Tried**:

- Complete app deletion + device restart

- Different bundle identifiers

- Clean builds, cache clearing

- InfoPlist.strings override

- Fresh project initialization


**Question**: Is there a device-level cache for app names that persists beyond app deletion? How can I force iOS to refresh the display name on a physical device?
