Long story short, I pushed a Catalyst version of my iOS app onto the Mac App Store and it's just way too buggy. I can't figure out how to just remove the macOS version?

I understand that without Catalyst you can specifically delist the iOS version from showing up on macOS but why can't I just remove the macOS one without affecting my iOS build?

At this point it looks like I'll have to push a whole new app to the iOS store and there's no way to transfer all paying customers over from one app to another?

Any suggestions?

Hi folks, had the same question, my solution is similar to the above prescribed. The reason is not a missing App Store Connect menu point (like many questions in the net suspect), but the bundle ID for both the IOS version and the MacOS version. Even if I managed to give the MacOS version a different ID, I could not delete the app`s separatly. So I pushed another IOS version (as stated above) with is similar name giving a cheap inApp purchase price for a transfer time. Ulix
