Column names are not consistent between devices

Hello,

 

I'm trying to create a PowerApp and it's going pretty well, until I moved from my desktop to my laptop. My desktop is in English and my laptop in Dutch (it's a company laptop).

Now I can deal with the ; and , difference in the formula bar, but my column names keep changing and then the app doesn't work anymore. Example: ID on desktop and 'Id (ID)' on my laptop (this also happens with 'ThisItem'. Also the display names of columns are somehow different, which is very annoying. It seems that sometimes it uses an older column name, but I can't figure out how to force the internal name everywhere. Removed and re-added, and refreshed data sources.  Both use the web version and both are on Edge.

 

Thank you in advance for reading!
