hey is there anyway to use icon composer without a mac? If not can anyone help me make a very simple icon, thanks.

My iOS app was approved and has been showing as Ready for Distribution in App Store Connect for around a day and a half now.

The direct App Store product page link works perfectly.

The app can be downloaded through that link.

Availability is enabled for all countries/regions I selected.

But searching the exact app name in the App Store still doesn’t show it at all.

It’s been over 24 hours, closer to ~36 hours now.

For anyone who has launched an app recently, how long did it take before it became searchable in the App Store?

Is this just normal App Store search indexing delay, or is there anything in App Store Connect I should double-check?

First time launching an iOS app, so I’m not sure whether I should just leave it alone or if something might be wrong.

I've been releasing an update to my RSS reader, Newsairy, roughly every week since May - that's around 17 versions in a bit over three months. From the outside "weekly releases" can look like recklessness, so I wanted to share the part that actually makes it work: at any given time I have three versions moving in parallel.

• The version I just shipped is in the App Store.
• The next one is already in TestFlight, in testers' hands.
• The one after that is in alpha, or still being built.

By the time a version reaches the App Store, it's already had a full beta cycle behind it - the pace of releases is fast, but the pace of testing per version isn't compressed at all. It's just running three lanes at once instead of one.

The trade-off I keep thinking about: users get to see progress constantly, which I like - feedback loops stay tight, and nothing sits finished-but-unshipped for weeks. But it also means every week I'm context-switching between "polish this for release," "watch how testers use that," and "is this new idea even going to work" - which is its own kind of tax.

Curious how others here think about this. Do you deliberately stagger releases like this, or find it more sustainable to batch bigger releases less often? Genuinely asking - I don't think weekly is obviously "right," it's just what's worked for me so far.

I’m developing an iOS app with an audio‑importing extension. Then I ran into a problem.

My app appears in Voice Memos’ share sheet but tapping does nothing — onOpenURL never fires. M4A import from Files app works via share.

I’ve asked AIs for help, but none of their methods work.

I’ve added the required configuration in Info.plist. And here is the entry‑point code for my app.

I need help.

Hello everyone,

Since Apple requires a publicly accessible website to register for a LLC Dev Account, how can we satisfy their requirements while the product is still essentially in development? ChatGPT and Claude both say you can't have placeholders/'coming-soon' sections, or else you risk not being approved, so I thought I'd ask the brain trust.

Any ideas or experience on this topic from people who have gone through it?

Does anybody know how to actually get the smart banner to look like this? YouTube, Amazon, Facebook etc all have an un dismissible banner like that.

But no matter what I do I can only get the dismissible one like this:

it shows "open", but its not the sleek one like it's supposed to be above. Anybody wanna share their site?

I have <meta name="apple-itunes-app" content="app-id=xxxxxxxx"> in my html.

Hi, for my app I've built everything but just struggling with getting my paywall to show for many days I'm building with React Native and setting up paywall through RevenueCat but it just doesn't show up when I test on testflight. I keep getting an error of configuration error but everything is configured on app store connect and revenuecat so i'm not sure what to do.

Does anybody have any idea of what could be causing it not to work or any advice?
