Using the front-end written by hbuilderx's h5+ or uniapp framework to package an ios application in the cloud will generate an application file with an ipa suffix. This file cannot be installed directly on the phone like an Android application. It needs to be put on the Apple App Store before users can download, install and use it.
Therefore, our article will introduce in detail how to upload the ios application, that is, the packaged ipa file to the Apple App Market.
Below is a detailed graphic tutorial:
1. To upload an app to the app store, you need to go to the Apple Developer Center to upload it, so here we first log in to the Apple Developer Center. After logging in to the backend, click the app module under app store connect to enter the app management page.
2. As shown below, the interface of the app management page is as follows. If the app has not been created yet, you need to choose to create the app. When creating the app, be sure to select the correct bundle ID (Bundle ID). This bundle ID needs to be filled in when we package it. The package names are consistent.
3. After creating the app, click the app to enter the information filling page. Just fill in the textual information according to the actual content. Then there is an item that requires uploading the ipa file to the build version, but it cannot be uploaded directly on the website. It is recommended that we download tools such as xcode and transporter to upload, as shown below.
However, these tools can only be installed on PCs with Apple systems. If you do not have an Apple system computer, you can use Banana Cloud Compiler to upload:

4. After the upload is successful, it will take about 30 minutes to appear in the build version. There is no rush here, let’s fill in other information first.
5. Among the listed materials, one of them requires us to upload screenshots of the app. Here it requires us to provide screenshots of many different types of iOS devices, as shown below, including 5.5-inch, 6.5-inch, and iPad screenshots:
But where do we have so many devices to take screenshots? Not all companies are rich enough to buy so many kinds of real-life devices to take screenshots, right? Here we can use the synthesized screenshot of Banana Cloud to complete it, as shown in the figure below:
6. After filling in all the information, you can submit it for manual review. I wish you a smooth review.
