# Publishing to the Apple App Store

Apple started **phasing out SMS-based authentication** as a primary 2FA method around **2023**, with iOS 17 and macOS Sonoma. While SMS codes are still available in some cases, Apple now prioritizes **trusted devices and security keys** for authentication.

In order to publish an iOS build in Adalo, you must be able to approve sign-ins from **Mac, iPhone, iPad, or Apple Watch** with 2FA enabled.
