Actually, we've found the name Py doesn't confuse users. Most associate it with the number Pi, giving it an academic feel.

For what it's worth, I assumed this would be an app focused on teaching Python.

Keep in mind many of our users don't even know python. We answer about 200+ questions every day in our in-app chat, and we've yet to hear someone get confused.

Don't you think you're doing yourself a disservice by being difficult to search for?

They're the very first google result for "py" for me right now.

Not for me, not even on the first page; Py Music, PyPy, Python all come before it.

FWIW For me first page has only sites from Paraguay (.py TLD). Second page start with their App Store, then their Techcrunch article and then Play Store. Nothing about Python before their app though.

Google knows me too well. The search rankings differ per user.

We changed our domain from py-app.com to downloadpy.com a couple days ago, so if you don't see us first this is probably why. Our old domain ranked consistently first.
