[Overview](https://help.buildfire.com/publish-your-app?hsLang=en-us#overview) # How do I publish my app to the Apple App Store and Google Play ## Learn the required steps to publish your app to the Apple App Store and Google Play using Buildfire’s publishing workflow. Publishing your app to the Apple App Store and Google Play requires active developer accounts, the correct permissions, and completed publishing details in the Buildfire Control Panel. Once everything is set up, Buildfire’s publishing team handles the submission process on your behalf. This guide walks through everything you need to complete before clicking Publish My App. --- ### **Requirements** - An Apple Developer Program account ($99/year) - A Google Play Developer account ($25 one-time fee) - A paid Buildfire plan - Admin access granted to Buildfire in both developer accounts --- ### **What do I need to publish my app?** 1. Create your [Apple Developer Program](https://developer.apple.com/programs/) account - The cost is $99 per year. - This account is required to publish apps to the Apple App Store. - In App Store Connect, go to Users and Access, click the + icon, and add [publishing3@buildfire.com](mailto:Publishing3@BuildFire.com) with admin permissions. 2. Create your [Google Play Developer](https://play.google.com/console/signup) account - The cost is a one-time $25 fee. - Choose the correct account type (Individual or Business/Organization) based on how your app is branded. - In Google Play Console, add [publishing3@buildfire.com](mailto:publishing3@buildfire.com) as an admin user. 3. Complete your publishing information - In the Buildfire Control Panel, go to Settings → App Publishing Info. - Fill out all required fields, including app details and store information. - Click Save once all fields are completed. 4. Submit your app for publishing - Click Publish My App. - Your app is sent to the Buildfire publishing team. - The team handles submission to both the Apple App Store and Google Play. - After submission, you’ll receive automated emails from Apple and/or Google confirming the review status, along with a separate manual update from our publishing team once the submission is completed on your behalf. --- ### **Pro tips** - Only the account holder can complete enrollment and payment for Apple and Google developer accounts. - Make sure all publishing fields are filled out completely to avoid submission delays. - Once submitted, Buildfire manages the review and publishing process for both platforms. - [Buildfire Control Panel](https://help.buildfire.com/buildfire-control-panel?hsLang=en-us#main-content) - [Navigating the Control Panel](https://help.buildfire.com/buildfire-control-panel?hsLang=en-us#navigating-the-control-panel) - [Global Tools](https://help.buildfire.com/buildfire-control-panel?hsLang=en-us#global-tools) - [Terms & Policies](https://help.buildfire.com/buildfire-control-panel?hsLang=en-us#terms-policies) - [Build Your App](https://help.buildfire.com/build-your-app?hsLang=en-us#main-content) - [Global Settings](https://help.buildfire.com/build-your-app?hsLang=en-us#global-settings) - [Building Your App's Navigation](https://help.buildfire.com/build-your-app?hsLang=en-us#building-your-apps-navigation) - [Building Your Login Flow](https://help.buildfire.com/build-your-app?hsLang=en-us#building-your-login-flow) - [Building a PWA](https://help.buildfire.com/build-your-app?hsLang=en-us#building-a-pwa) - [Add Functionality To Your App](https://help.buildfire.com/add-functionality-to-your-app?hsLang=en-us#main-content) - [Plugins to drive engagement & community](https://help.buildfire.com/add-functionality-to-your-app?hsLang=en-us#plugins-to-drive-engagement-community) - [Plugins to drive monetization](https://help.buildfire.com/add-functionality-to-your-app?hsLang=en-us#plugins-to-drive-monetization) - [Plugins to run operations & workflows](https://help.buildfire.com/add-functionality-to-your-app?hsLang=en-us#plugins-to-run-operations-workflows) - [Plugins to show content & media](https://help.buildfire.com/add-functionality-to-your-app?hsLang=en-us#plugins-to-show-content-media) - [Make Money With Your App](https://help.buildfire.com/make-money-with-your-app?hsLang=en-us#main-content) - [Overview](https://help.buildfire.com/make-money-with-your-app?hsLang=en-us#overview) - [Apple/iOS](https://help.buildfire.com/make-money-with-your-app?hsLang=en-us#apple-ios) - [Google/Android](https://help.buildfire.com/make-money-with-your-app?hsLang=en-us#google-android) - [Publish Your App](https://help.buildfire.com/publish-your-app?hsLang=en-us#main-content) - [Overview](https://help.buildfire.com/publish-your-app?hsLang=en-us#overview) - [Apple/iOS](https://help.buildfire.com/publish-your-app?hsLang=en-us#apple-ios) - [Google/Android](https://help.buildfire.com/publish-your-app?hsLang=en-us#google-android) - [Manage Your App](https://help.buildfire.com/manage-your-app?hsLang=en-us#main-content) - [Managing Your App’s Users](https://help.buildfire.com/manage-your-app?hsLang=en-us#managing-your-apps-users) - [Push Notifications](https://help.buildfire.com/manage-your-app?hsLang=en-us#push-notifications) - [Analytics](https://help.buildfire.com/manage-your-app?hsLang=en-us#analytics) - [Connect External Partners](https://help.buildfire.com/connect-external-partners?hsLang=en-us#main-content) - [Google/Android](https://help.buildfire.com/connect-external-partners?hsLang=en-us#google-android) - [Apple/iOS](https://help.buildfire.com/connect-external-partners?hsLang=en-us#apple-ios) - [Zapier](https://help.buildfire.com/connect-external-partners?hsLang=en-us#zapier) - [Meta](https://help.buildfire.com/connect-external-partners?hsLang=en-us#meta) - [Segment](https://help.buildfire.com/connect-external-partners?hsLang=en-us#segment) [![Group 4578 (1)](https://help.buildfire.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Group%204578%20(1).png?width=140&height=33&name=Group%204578%20(1).png "Group 4578 (1)")](https://buildfire.com/) Copyright © 2026, Buildfire
