What actually happens between "done building" and "live on the App Store"

No dark-mode styles — this email renders the same in a dark client.

If you’ve shipped an app before, you know how this goes but if you’re a vibe coding newbie: Here's the honest version of what's between a finished app and a live one.


Setting up App Store Connect. Certificates, provisioning profiles, bundle IDs. Writing listing metadata for every territory. Sizing screenshots for every device Apple requires. Setting up in-app purchases or subscriptions. Submitting for review, and if Apple rejects it, which happens to almost everyone at least once, figuring out what they actually meant and fixing it.


None of that is hard exactly. It's just tedious and easy to lose a weekend to or even a week if we’re keeping it 100.


Lance.App handles all of it with just prompt. Yep, the same way you'd prompt Claude Code or Cursor to build the app in the first place, you can upload, ship and manage your app with just a few words. Lance:


- 

Uploads and submits builds via TestFlight


- 

Sets up in-app purchases and subscriptions, with per-territory pricing


- 

Writes and updates your metadata and screenshots


- 

Reads Apple's rejection notes and actually fixes the problem


- 

Configures things like Sign in with Apple and push notifications


If you want to see this live instead of reading about it, our group demos walk through the whole thing.
