Publish Your App

Generate and download your Android (APK/AAB) or iOS (IPA) app file.

⏱️ 5 min
🟢 Easy

Publishing creates the installable file for your app. Android builds produce APK (for testing) or AAB (for Play Store). iOS builds produce IPA files that are automatically uploaded to App Store Connect for TestFlight or review. Each build takes about 5-15 minutes.

Output File Types

Each platform has different file formats for different purposes. Choose the right file type based on whether you're testing or ready to publish.

🤖 APK (Android)

For testing on Android devices. Can be installed directly.

🤖 AAB (Android)

For Google Play Store. Required for publishing.

🍎 IPA Only (iOS)

Download IPA file. Requires a Mac to upload manually to App Store Connect.

🍎 Publish to App Store (iOS)

Uploads directly to App Store Connect. No Mac needed! Requires app record first.

💡 No Mac? Use "Publish to App Store" and AppMyWeb uploads your app automatically. You only need to create the app record in App Store Connect first.

Version Numbers & Signing Keys

Version numbers tell users and app stores which version of your app they have. When you update your app, you must increase the version number or the stores will reject the upload. You also need to select the correct signing key for each publish.

⚠️ Critical: Each time you update your app on the stores, you must increase the version number before building. The stores reject uploads with the same or lower version.

📊 Version Format

Use format: 1.0.01.0.11.0.2

First number: major changes. Second: features. Third: bug fixes.

🔢 Version Number

Auto-increments with each publish (internal tracking)

🔑 Signing Key

Must select the correct key for each platform before publishing

Android: Keystore file. iOS: API Key (P8).

✅ Validation

System checks version format and key validity before publishing
