Submit App to App Store (Upload iOS App) - 2024 Tutorial

In this video we will learn how to submit an app to the iOS App Store (App Store Connect) with Xcode 13. Submitting your app to the app store allows others to download it after Apple has reviewed and approved it for sale. Submission / upload requires that you have an Apple Developer account.

I will do so

[@purplebear445]

There's so many steps u missed explaining such as how do you even register the app on the App Store never mind upload it !!

[@harshverma7037]

Also can u please make a video about interview question related to ios where we are given an API and we need to implement it using certain design pattern, pagenation, applying GCD's etc? It would be really helpful.

[@SanusiAdewale]

Check Sean Allen youtube page, go to playlist you'd find iOS Developer Interview Questions

[@iOSAcademy]

Coming soon

[@nileshjdarji]

I keep coming back to this video everytime I upload a new version of my app. This is the best video I have found on KZbin that I can follow along. Thank you for making this video. Much appreciated.

[@iOSAcademy]

Glad it helped!

[@WalkUsThrough]

Thanks for this video it was very helpful!👍

[@akshaybisu9706]

thanks for the video

[@tonyren.tr5]

Has anyone experienced app submission issues like "There are still screenshot uploads in progress" and "IMAGE_TOOL_FAILURE" errors? I tried to google up solutions but none seem like they are a help. Afraz, I would appreciate if you can address this issue

[@tonyren.tr5]

Actually, I got it working! Geez

[@wingsaber629]

Apple is asking to upload a CCATS (US Commodity Classification Automated Tracking System). What the heck is this?

[@aqkhana2002]

You talk toooooooo much , I am following your video but end up with skipping it...

[@thomasmester6508]

That's for updating an app, not to submit one. Change your misleading title!

[@kidnamedfinger6306]

same process

[@terrycanefield1449]

I didn't recall yo mentioning that it was $99 usd subscription to upload you APP to the App Store.

[@iOSAcademy]

Yep. It is

[@helric5746]

Afraz, do you have a solution as to why I do not see a blue + anymore to add a new version? I've published two versions and looking to publish a third but cannot seem to be able to create a new version anymore.

[@iOSAcademy]

Can only do 2 at a time unless a version is released to the app store

[@Jannemandevries]

11:50 you can actually add ITSAppUsesNonExemptEncryption to Info.plist so you won't have to confirm this compliance manually anymore.

[@iOSAcademy]

yep

[@michelle19333]

thanks for pointing this out Jan 👍

[@louddude]

this is incredibly helpful comment, I didn't know that's possible, now every time I upload I send you rays of goodness :)

[@ezz_dev]

You did only update an app. Don't write misleading titles.

[@johnabisoye9509]

Hello, nice video! I have been having issues in uploading my app on the AppStore for for than 8months now, it’s not going through and it’s really heartbreaking 💔.

[@TheDog2M]

My upload was successful, but my build is not showing on TestFlight, please help

[@8bee838]

Please anyone help us. I'm also get same problem.

[@zhenguet]

I search for result and many developers said that check email for error if it show nothing

[@DeepakPrajapat-x9t]

Same problem 😢😢 please help

[@louddude]

metadata explanation would be helpful as well all this privacy links, support links etc - I’ve created landing for that purpose but would be interesting to know how do you approach to this, thanks

[@hasibulhasan8074]

Its not upload iso app. The video is about upload an update of iso app.

[@nileshjdarji]

Nice Video Afraz. One point I would like to clarify here. When I submitted my app for review for the first time, I wanted it to support starting iOS 14.5, but under General -> Deployment Info, I accidentally kept it iOS 15.4 as that was the newest version I wanted to support. Then when my app was approved I was reading the app store page where it had listed that my app supports minimum iOS version of 15.4. So the only question I wanted to ask is if I am uploading my app that supports iOS version for example14.5 and the current iOS is 15.7 suppose, then is there any setting I need to do before archiving that way both of my customers using 14.5 and 15.7 can use the app?

[@moushengxu]

Nice video! However, you didn't cover the part "app previews and screenshots", which I care the most about. :)

[@blacksteed8097]

what about the license agreement section in test information- test flight???

[@CurtMurphy]

You don't explain anything other than how to upload! It's just you jumping around the screen and reading what's on there. I already have no issues getting an app into test flight, and you've added zero to that.

[@epicboy330]

The name of the video states it’s how to *submit* an app. There are other videos for the other steps so calm down

[@rezashah2599]

Thank you Afraz, could you tell me what was that pop-up during your submission which was related to Encryption ? Was is related to Bundle files, Coding or what ? Because for example I have used an Encrypted sqlite file in my project. Does that asking for Encryption was related to this or not ?

[@mikesean1990]

[@josiasmayo7203]

hi, have u ever encountered this error? ERROR ITMS-90085: “No architectures in the binary. Lipo failed to detect any architectures in the bundle executable? :O

[@service-plus-connect]

Thank you 🙏🏾. I see you uploaded some short videos there? What tools did you use in compressing your videos and does it affect the quality of the videos?

[@oliver_lauritsen_oa]

How are you able to upload it to the appstore your bundle Id and display name doesn't match your appstore discription name doesn't match too my application gets rejected because this what's wrong

[@andrewvlasov]

Please tell me how to remove this version (which has not yet been checked) and add a new one?

[@emmanuelidaresit1087]

Great Video Afraz 👍🏾, thank you. I would like to know how to upload an iOS app with a companion watchOS app to App Store Connect in another video if that is possible

[@admintutorial]

This was the most helpful video to understand the versioning and localization process. Thanks!

[@abdimussa8932]

Hey there, nice video. I was following this to release an update to my app, but by only increasing the build number, but I got this error: Version 2.00 is closed for new build submissions With error code STATE_ERROR.VALIDATION_ERROR.90186. Any idea how I can solve this?

[@optimusPRIMEn1]

How to upload the video for the app? You forgot to mention this.

[@harshverma7037]

How can we increase our app sales even though keeping it in free tier?

[@iOSAcademy]

In app purchases

A video about an app update that has the chrome red update pill!

I want to create new update but older testflight version added, is it possible ?

[@YuriiKratser]

What's the reson of invalid binary status?

Thanks for this video. I was wondering, you didn't say anything about generating a certificate using keychain.

thx did help

[@jimharris6389]

Helpful video, thank you. If I'm only publishing my app for external beta testers, do I still submit to the App Store or is there a separate Testflight specific submission and review process?

[@omggodbs]

There is a TestFlight specific option for external beta testers. It can typcially take 1-3 days for the review process.

[@9615544]

nice shared Afraz, thanks, it was very useful

[@gurikn9289]

Thank you, this is very helpful! I'm actually in the process of submitting my first app, but it's strictly an iphone app, so do I still have to include the iPad screenshots in the metadata page? Also, for the support URL, is it alright if I just include my portfolio website in the URL field, which include my contact information along with a few other projects? Thanks again!

[@iOSAcademy]

Nope! Only iphone screenshots needed
