Distribute Your Build to the App Store

Now that your build has been uploaded to App Store Connect, you need to set up the Distribution. This includes selecting your build in the Build section of App Store Connect, confirming it shows your app icon, answering Apple’s compliance and export questions, and clicking Add for Review (or Submit for Review) to begin the approval process.

App Icon Requirements:

• Size: 1024 × 1024 pixels

• Format: PNG

• Background: Solid color (no transparency)

• File Name: Simple naming (e.g., appicon.png) without spaces or special characters

To add your app icon in Adalo before building:

1. Open your Adalo app.

2. Go to Settings → Branding.

3. Upload your icon image (1024×1024 PNG with no transparency).

4. Save your changes.

5. Generate your iOS build.

Selecting the Build in App Store Connect

1. Log in to App Store Connect

2. Select your app.

3. Go to App Store → iOS App → Distribution

   
4. In the Build section, click the ➕ (plus) button.

   
5. From the list, select the build you uploaded (it should display your app icon on the left) and Done.

   
6. Answer any compliance questions (encryption, export compliance, etc.).

7. Click Add for Review (or Save, if you are not yet ready to submit for review).

   

Troubleshooting Missing Icons

If the build selection screen shows a placeholder icon or no icon:

• Check that you uploaded the correct icon in Adalo before building.

• Confirm your PNG is exactly 1024×1024 and has no transparency.

• Regenerate the build in Adalo and upload it again to App Store Connect.

• Wait a few minutes after upload; icons may take time to appear in the build list.
