Home Screen Layout: the display name of an app doesn't yield any results

I'm trying to add ConnectWise Manage as the first app on the home screen (or maybe in the Dock -- not sure yet).

When I add other apps, I just type the name (like "Gmail") and it immediately finds the app and it's matching bundle ID ("com.google.Gmail"). Sometimes it finds multiple possible matches, but the one I want is always there.

But when I type ConnectWise, it finds a bunch of wrong matches; the right one isn't a choice. If I type the full name, ConnectWise Manage, I get no matches at all.

I could add it by using it's bundle ID, but I don't know it, and I don't know any way to find it.

Any suggestions?

If you go to the listing on the app store you should see the id at the end of the string.

Then do the following:

https://itunes.apple.com/lookup?id=470532082

Replace the id with the one in the url from the store. You will get a text file downloaded locally. Search the text file for "bundleid" and it will tell you what the app store bundle id is.
