I've an iOS app. But I've several issues with my "Ready for Sale" app. My app is distributed as custom app. But users are unable to install the app with a "redemption code".

I tried to explain to them but very few have got it. Others were getting discouraged with my custom app implementation. They're asking why it's not available in app store.

So I need to make available my app in app store. So that all user can download the app from the app store like any other app.

How can I make my custom app available in app store for download.

Distributing an app in the AppStore, is fairly simple but there are some conditions:

  • You have to be a a registered Apple Developer, which means you have to pay the USD 100 fee, you can join here
  • Your app must follow App Store guidelines: read them here
  • Since any apple user can download your app, you must find a way to allow only your users to use the app it, it could be a user/password or any way your find appropriate

Once an app has been marked for distribution as a custom app it cannot be made available as a general App Store app.

You can take your existing source code and change the bundle id, effectively making it a new app. You can then set up a new app record in App Store Connect for this new bundle id and submit it for review by Apple.

You should be aware that if the app targets a specific or limited audience then it may not be approved for the App Store.
