iOS and Android Publishing

You submit a publishing request with your Apple and Google account details. Our team then QAs your app and checks it against both stores’ approval guidelines before anything is sent.

Where you allow it, we submit on your behalf through your own App Store and Google Play accounts. If you would rather submit it yourself, we hand it back ready to go and tell you exactly what to do.

When we submit, we monitor Apple and Google for feedback, recommend any changes they ask for, and answer their questions and rejections until you are live. Getting into the stores is the step most projects stall on, and this is how we make sure yours does not.

App Onboarding with Customer Success

Everything you need to get your app ready yourself: video courses, tutorials and checklists that take you from setup to submission. It is a do-it-yourself route, but you are never on your own. Our customer success team is on email and will get on a call whenever you are blocked.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need my own Apple Developer and Google Play accounts?

Yes. Your app is published white-label under your own developer accounts — Apple ($99/year) and Google ($25 one-time) — so you fully own the store listings. On the Managed plan we handle the setup and submission for you; on Solo and Launch you publish under your account with our step-by-step guidance.

What is the difference between the Next Gen app and the React Native app?

Next Gen is the app we build today and the one every new customer gets. It is faster, and it is where all of our development goes. The React Native app is no longer sold to new customers. If you are already on React Native your app is fully supported, there is no forced migration, and we have not set an end date.

Will Apple and Google approve my app? Who handles submission?

BuddyBoss apps are built to meet App Store and Play Store guidelines, and tens of thousands are live today. On Managed, we submit your app and handle any review feedback. On Solo and Launch you submit it yourself — rejections are usually minor (screenshots, metadata) and our docs walk you through them.

Is the app truly branded as mine, or does it say BuddyBoss?

It’s fully white-label. Your app ships under your own name, icon, and splash screen with zero BuddyBoss branding. To your members, it’s simply your app in the App Store and Google Play.

Can I sell courses and memberships inside the app?

Yes — the Launch and Managed plans support in-app purchasing. Apple and Google require digital goods sold inside an app to use their in-app purchase systems, and BuddyBoss handles this so members can buy memberships and courses directly in the app while staying compliant.

What’s the difference between doing it myself (Solo/Launch) and Managed?

With Solo and Launch you build and submit the app yourself using your developer accounts, with our guidance. Managed is fully done-for-you — we handle the build, App Store graphics, submission, monthly maintenance, and feature configuration, so you never touch the technical side.

Can I get custom development on my app?

Not as part of an app plan. Custom development is handled by the BuddyBoss agency rather than bundled into a subscription, which keeps our team focused on Next Gen speed and quality. Managed customers get reduced agency rates. Managed support itself covers the app plugin, not custom work.

What happens when iOS or Android releases an update — will my app keep working?

On the Managed plan, monthly maintenance keeps your app compatible with new OS versions and store requirements. On Solo and Launch, you push updated builds on your own schedule whenever you’re ready to ship changes.

Can my members use the app offline?

Yes — the Launch and Managed plans include Offline Mode for course content, so learners can download lessons and keep going without an internet connection.

How long until my app is live in the stores?

Typically four to six weeks from starting to being live in the stores. Most of that is preparation rather than waiting: getting your site and content ready, and setting up your Apple and Google developer accounts. Store review itself is usually quick, a few days for Apple and often less for Google. Managed customers have the whole pipeline handled end to end.
