Hello,

I need advice from experienced iOS developers.

I have a completed iOS application ready for App Store submission.

  • My Apple Developer account is active and fully paid.
  • I successfully created the Bundle ID.
  • I added the developer to App Store Connect with the Admin role and access to all apps.
  • The developer has a Mac and works on the project.
  • I only have an iPhone and do not own a Mac.

The developer says they may need direct access to my Apple Developer account to complete the signing process and upload the app.

My questions are:

  1. Is the Admin role in App Store Connect sufficient for uploading an app to the App Store?
  2. Does the developer really need my Apple ID and password, or should the current permissions be enough?
  3. What is the safest and recommended way to allow a developer to complete the upload without sharing my account credentials?
  4. Are there any additional permissions required in Apple Developer that I may have missed?

Thank you for your help

  1. Yes. Actually, you can do it with the Developer role.
  2. No. Create a user under the Users and Access and then assign a role to it.
  3. Create a user under Users and Access.
  4. If it's your account, then your role is not an Admin but an Account Holder.
