Overview

Publish mobile applications to official app stores with proper code signing, versioning, testing, and submission procedures.

When to Use

• Publishing apps to App Store and Google Play
• Managing app versions and releases
• Configuring signing certificates and provisioning profiles
• Automating build and deployment processes
• Managing app updates and rollouts

Quick Start

Minimal working example:

# Create development and distribution signing certificates
# Step 1: Generate Certificate Signing Request (CSR) in Keychain Access
# Step 2: Create App ID in Apple Developer Portal
# Step 3: Create provisioning profiles (Development, Distribution)

# Xcode configuration for signing
# Set Team ID, Bundle Identifier, and select provisioning profiles
# Build Settings:
# - Code Sign Identity: "iPhone Distribution"
# - Provisioning Profile: Select appropriate profile
# - Code Sign Style: Automatic (recommended)

# Info.plist settings
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<plist version="1.0">
<dict>
  <key>CFBundleShortVersionString</key>
  <string>1.0.0</string>
  <key>CFBundleVersion</key>
  <string>1</string>
  <key>NSAppTransportSecurity</key>
  <dict>
    <key>NSAllowsArbitraryLoads</key>
    <false/>
  </dict>
// ... (see reference guides for full implementation)

Best Practices

✅ DO

• Use signed certificates and provisioning profiles
• Automate builds with CI/CD
• Test on real devices before submission
• Keep version numbers consistent
• Document deployment procedures
• Use environment-specific configurations
• Implement proper error tracking
• Monitor app performance post-launch
• Plan rollout strategy
• Keep backup of signing materials
• Test offline functionality
• Maintain release notes

❌ DON'T

• Commit signing materials to git
• Skip device testing
• Release untested code
• Ignore store policies
• Use hardcoded API keys
• Skip security reviews
• Deploy without monitoring
• Ignore crash reports
• Make large version jumps
• Use invalid certificates
• Deploy without backups
• Release during holidays
