Summary

Publishing a Bubble-built native iOS app requires a separate Apple Developer Program membership costing $99 annually, with an Apple Account using two-factor authentication, accurate legal identity information, and, for organizations, a D-U-N-S Number, matching company website, and an authorized representative. Individual accounts are generally approved faster but display the person’s legal name as the App Store seller, while organization accounts display the legal entity’s name and undergo manual verification. After approval and payment, developers use App Store Connect to assign team roles, create an app record with an irreversible bundle ID, and, for paid apps or in-app purchases, complete agreements, tax forms, and banking details. Additional iOS requirements may include push-notification credentials and an accurate privacy policy and data disclosures. The material also notes that Android distribution requires a separate Google Play developer account with a one-time registration fee, app signing, privacy information, and potentially a 14-day closed test for newer personal accounts. Bubble enables web, iOS, and Android development from one editor, helps package and validate app builds, supports TestFlight and limited over-the-air updates, but leaves store-specific accounts, credentials, reviews, and compliance obligations to the developer.
