Apple has a lot of requirements for submitting apps to the App Store, and many of them can be confusing. Success for the small developer depends on understanding and complying with these requirements.
This course covers preparing an iOS application for, and submitting it to, the App Store. It includes tutorials on making sure your app meets Apple's human interface guidelines, preparing assets such as icons and screenshots, building preview videos, generating the necessary development and distribution certificates, building the app bundles, submitting the app, and complying with Apple's requirements for marketing materials. Author John Nastos, creator of the popular Metronomics family of apps, will also explain what Apple's review process is like and how soon you can expect to hear back about your submission.
The course will be updated as Apple's requirements evolve, so check back often to keep your skills current.
