With 12 testers and 14 days of patience! That’s how!

For eSIM op reis, which I talked about in the last blog post, I developed 2 apps: first for iOS, then for Android.

So, by now, I would say I have a pretty good understanding of what it takes to release an app on both platforms nowadays.

The Apple experience is like this: You pay €100 (or thereabouts), and you get access to App Store Connect. You submit an app by uploading it (through Xcode typically). Then your app gets reviewed by a human being. If they need extra info, they provide clear communication, and you can sort it out. You can even communicate with the reviewer via an e-mail-like system. Then, when approved, the app is on the App Store.
