Hello. I am a developer contracted by a client to develop a custom app intended for internal use. Once the first version of the app is released, it is expected that the application will be evolving so fast in order to add new features, new fields to existing features and so on. As usual when the apps are for internal use. Then many periodic modifications are expected. I am doubting about the best way to accomplish these continuous deployments for upgrades. Currently, I am pointing to use Private Distribution of Custom Apps, as apple recommends but: How many time lasts between upgrades submissions and apple approval of these new versions so that the upgrades are then released in the private store? Or there is no need of apple approval for each new version? (as the Ad Hoc distribution method). What would be the best way to get rapid "re-deployment" for every new version? Thank you
