Publish to App Store

Submit your iOS app to the Apple App Store for review.

💡 Note: This guide is for publishing to App Store. If you just want to build and test (without publishing), see Build Your App for IPA-only builds.

To publish to the App Store, you must create the app in App Store Connect before building in AppMyWeb. Apple requires the app to exist in their system before you can upload builds. The Bundle ID and App Name must match exactly.
