Why do I need my own developer account?
Apple's and Google's rule, what owning the account gives you, and what we take care of.
Apple's and Google's rule
Apple requires apps made from a template or an app generation service to be submitted by the brand that owns the content, from its own account (App Store Review Guidelines, section 4.2.6). It rejects such apps when they come from another company's account. Google Play also expects the real owner of the app to appear as the seller.
That is why your app is published from your own Apple and Google accounts.
What it gives you
- The app is always yours. Your name or company name appears as the seller in the stores.
- Reviews, ratings and users stay on your account.
- You control access. You add us by invitation and can remove us at any time.
What we do once the account is open
Your part is opening the accounts, paying, accepting the agreements and adding us to the team. We handle the rest:
- App registration and signing
- Store listings and screenshots
- Submission, Apple and Google review, and answering their questions
- Updates after launch
Where to start: Enrolling in the Apple Developer Program and Opening a Google Play developer account.
