Apple Developer Account Setup

To publish your iOS app, you need an Apple Developer Account. This gives you access to App Store Connect, TestFlight, and essential developer tools.

Steps to Enroll:

1. Visit the Apple Developer Program page and click Enroll.
   
2. Sign in with your Apple ID.
   
3. Select your entity type:
   
   • Individual/Sole Proprietor if you’re publishing under your name.
   • Company/Organization if you have a legal business.
4. (For organizations) Get your D-U-N-S Number from Dun & Bradstreet, then submit your legal entity details.
5. Accept Apple’s terms and complete verification.
   
6. Pay the annual membership fee.
   
7. Wait for email confirmation (1–3 business days).

Once approved, you can log in to App Store Connect to start exploring sections like My Apps, TestFlight, and Users & Access.

Note: After setup, you’ll also be able to invite the BuddyBoss team to assist with publishing.
