Could I implement a button in my application that would open an external link where people could register their account? Just like the Netflix or Disney Plus app has. I think my application falls under the category of "reader" app, just like Netflix and Disney Plus. While I was developing the app, the apple review team rejected my app because of the button to the external registration page. But I see that all other applications that belong to the Reader app have a button, so I'm interested if someone can help me, what do I need to do to enable the button to the external user registration page? best regard Nemanja Nedelkov

Hi, I’m a developer working on iOS applications, and I need access to a TestFlight invitation code. This will help me test [briefly describe your purpose, e.g., a beta app or a tool]. Could you please provide me with the code or guide me on how to access it? Thank you so much! Best regards, [Edris Rahimi]

Third-party analytics SDKs, such as Firebase, can collect and analyze in-app purchase data without requiring explicit coding by developers. How do they achieve this? Does Apple provide a mechanism to monitor in-app purchases, or do these SDKs implement runtime monitoring of the system’s in-app purchase process themselves? Additionally, I noticed that when using StoreKit 2 for in-app purchases, Firebase require developers to explicitly write code to enable the collection of in-app purchase data. Is this because the StoreKit 2 framework no longer supports arbitrary services implementing runtime monitoring of in-app purchases?

My iOS app has been in beta via TestFlight for 2 months without any issue. I use FlutterFlow and Firebase for my app build. I added the RevenueCat paywall and entitlement queries per their integration documentation. Within an hour or two of testing paid app subscriptions I lose access to iMessage on my iPhone and when I call Apple they say it's because the device/number has been reported as spam. This has now occurred on two separate devices with two different cell carriers which is frustrating since Apple representatives mention that they only perform a "one time exception" to reinstate iMessage privileges. The paywall and subscription to content is working perfectly. However, I don't feel confident releasing the app until I can confirm this won't happen to customers in production. I have no clue how to begin to test and troubleshoot this sort of issue outside of risking my personal phone numbers since it seems out of my control. Any insight or ideas?? Thanks so much!

Hi, I am stuck at "Design Spam", I have done numerous revisions but still i am getting "We still noticed your app shares a similar binary, metadata, and/or concept as apps submitted to the App Store by other developers, with only minor differences." from app review team. The app which I am trying to submit is a simple social media app, and its been almost a month it could not pass the review. I have updated meta data, updated assets but still app is getting rejected. Has anyone faced similar case, if yes then how did they solved it? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks

My app was denied because the 6.7" screenshots are outdated. But I can't find the 6.7" screenshots to update them. So I am stuck I can't update my app.

Hello everyone! I hope I'm on the right forum topic... I have a question about payments on the app store. I am in the process of developing a mobile application that allows families to post photos on the application. Each month, all the content posted is put into a journal which is then printed and sent to the family's grandparents. So my app sells a physical product. I'd like to know more about the 30% tax on in-app purchases. I don't think I'm eligible since it's a physical product, but I'm not sure. My question also arises if I offer a monthly subscription system to receive the newspaper each month? Thank you very much in advance for your answers! Loïc

I'm currently in the process of submitting a new app with a single non-consumable In-App Purchase. After creating the IAP in AppStore Connect, I created a synced StoreKit config in Xcode which correctly loaded the purchase. After making sure that the transaction works as expected within the app, I submitted the app in AppStore connect, including the In-App Purchase. Since then, the In-App Purchase can not be found in the StoreKit configuration and isn't displayed in the app, which lead to the submission being rejected. As requested by the review team, I have resubmitted the In-App Purchase, so it's currently "Waiting for Review" but still not showing up in the StoreKit configuration in Xcode. I'm not quite sure what I'm doing wrong here. I have other apps live in the AppStore with IAPs and no outstanding agreements to sign.

In TestFlight, it normally takes 24 hours to process a new build. However, I've been waiting for the last 3 days to test our new build. Why is it taking so long? Can someone please explain the reason?

I’ve been following the Apple documentation on Configure Multiple Product Page Versions. However, I still have some questions about the functionality. https://developer.apple.com/help/app-store-connect/create-custom-product-pages/configure-multiple-product-page-versions/ A user clicks a UniversalLink from a webpage (with parameters attached) that leads them to the App Store multiple product, and downloading and installing the app. I’d like to confirm that the original UniversalLink parameters are still accessible and can be used on the app’s first launch? Are there any special configurations required to enable this? Thank you!

App ID: 6470781599 After receiving the mail below, my developer account was canceled and my app was taken down. I contacted Apple and they said they are reviewing it and haven't gotten back to me in 3 weeks. I was wondering if anyone has experienced the same situation and if anyone knows how much longer I should wait? Since it's a company app, I'm getting a lot of resentment from existing app users. Should I upload a new app? As previously advised, App Store Review Guidelines 5.6.4 (App Quality) states, "[Customers expect the best quality in the App Store, and maintaining high-quality content, service, and experience increases customer confidence. Signs that this expectation is not being met include excessive customer reporting and excessive refund requests for concerns about apps such as negative customer reviews. The inability to maintain high quality can be a factor in determining whether developers comply with the developer code of conduct," it states. You have not done enough to tailor your Apple Developer Program account to the Developer Code of Product. Therefore, Apple is exercising its right to terminate your status as an Apple developer under the DPLA. As an Apple developer, I would like to remind you of your obligations under DPLA regarding all software and other confidential information obtained from Apple. You must immediately cease and desist from any use of these materials and comply with all other termination obligations set forth in Section 11.3 of DPLA and Section 10 of ADA. If applicable, no additional payment will be made in accordance with Section 7.1 of the Paid Application Agreement (DPLA Schedule 2 and 3).

I published an app to TestFlight today and the invitation email has the wrong company name. The invitation has the correct icon image and below it, the [app name] By [company name] for iOS. The problem is, the company name is actually a different app name that I had reserved and not the name of the company for which the developer account is associated. How do I ensure that future builds will have the correct company name in the TestFlight invitations?

I have released my app a while ago, and some days ago a customer realized that the screenshots uploaded for the horizontal view, are rotated and shown on the App Store when seeing the app. I already submitted a ticket and checked the metadata of the images and everything seems fine. Anyone else has experienced that? Has anyone been able to solve it? Thanks in advance!

Hi Folks, I’m looking to pull performance metrics using https://developer.apple.com/documentation/appstoreconnectapi/get-v1-apps-_id_-perfpowermetrics from Lookback for yesterday's data. Could you guide me on the best way to filter or query this specific timeframe? I dont actually see a way pull data from history. Any advice or steps would be greatly appreciated. TIA!

The AppStore requires that the com.apple.security.app-sandbox entitlement is set to true. My app has two binaries, a client and a server. The Client starts the server in a selected workspace/directory and makes a TCP connection with the started server. This concept works perfectly without SandBox but a TCP connection is not possible within a SandBox. The entitlement file looks like this: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <!DOCTYPE plist PUBLIC "-//Apple//DTD PLIST 1.0//EN" "http://www.apple.com/DTDs/PropertyList-1.0.dtd"> <plist version="1.0"> <dict> <key>com.apple.security.app-sandbox</key> <true/> <key>com.apple.security.device.usb</key> <true/> <key>com.apple.security.files.downloads.read-write</key> <true/> <key>com.apple.security.files.user-selected.read-write</key> <true/> <key>com.apple.security.network.client</key> <true/> <key>com.apple.security.network.server</key> <true/> </dict> </plist> Any hints/help is very appreciated. Kind regards, Rob

I can't add a new bank account, the website keeps saying invalid date of birth. I've tried everything but no results?

What should I do when my Development or App Store certificates in my developer account under Certificates, Identifiers & Profiles are almost expired or when the certificates are already expired? What should I do so that I can still use the certificates? What happens when the certificates expire and when I already have an application in the App Store?
