SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

It helps you quickly determine whether an iOS/macOS app is ready for App Store submission by identifying the highest-risk issues that can cause upload failures or review delays.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Release verdict first: Produces a concise readiness verdict and surfaces only the top blocking issues before expanding into details.
  • Domain-based checklist: Assesses build & binary readiness, the submission packet, AI/privacy safety disclosures, metadata/storefront assets, IAP/subscriptions, TestFlight health, and accessibility/age-rating alignment.
  • Actionable remediation planning: For each blocker, structures evidence, a concrete fix, an owner, and a required verification step to close gaps with less back-and-forth.

Quick Start

Ask the skill for a progressive-disclosure release verdict and top blockers by saying: "Run the Apple production-readiness checklist for my app and start at Level 0, then expand only the highest-risk domain."

FAQPage Schema
How do I check my app for App Store submission readiness before uploading?

App Store submission readiness requires evaluating build health, metadata completeness, privacy disclosures, IAP configurations, TestFlight status, and accessibility alignment to identify blocking issues before uploading. A staged release checklist surfaces top blockers first to prevent review delays.

What is the best way to prevent App Store review delays caused by privacy compliance?

Preventing App Store review delays from privacy compliance involves auditing AI and privacy safety disclosures within your submission packet. A structured release checklist verifies these requirements early, producing a prioritized verdict with evidence-to-fix remediation steps to guide verified next actions.

How do I prepare an App Store release triage workflow for iOS and macOS apps?

Preparing an App Store release triage workflow involves running a progressive-disclosure checklist across submission, metadata, AI/privacy safety, IAP, TestFlight, and accessibility domains. It produces a compact Level 0 readiness verdict and expands only into high-risk domains to prioritize actions.

Does App Store release readiness require verifying in-app purchases and TestFlight health?

Yes, App Store release readiness requires verifying in-app purchases and TestFlight health as core checklist domains. Evaluating IAP configurations and TestFlight stability ensures your build passes submission checks and avoids common upload failures or reviewer rejections.

What steps are needed to fix App Store metadata review blockers?

Fixing App Store metadata review blockers requires structuring evidence, a concrete fix, an owner, and a required verification step for each issue. This actionable remediation planning closes gaps with less back-and-forth by guiding verified next actions before preparing reviewer-facing materials.

When do I need an accessibility and age-rating alignment check for App Store submission?

You need an accessibility and age-rating alignment check for App Store submission when finalizing storefront assets and reviewer-facing materials. Running this check during release triage ensures compliance with App Store guidelines and prevents unexpected rejections before uploading builds.
