Distributing to App Stores

Packaging a graphical app as described in the Packaging page provides a file or bundle that could be directly shared or distributed. However signing and uploading to app stores and market places is an additional step that requires platform-specific configuration, which we will cover in this page.

In each of these steps we will use a new tool that is part of the fyne command line utilities. The fyne release step handles the signing and preparation for each store, but the parameters vary per-platform, which we see below.

macOS App Store (since fyne 1.4.2)

Prerequisites:

  • Apple mac running macOS and Xcode
  • Apple Developer account
  • Mac App Store application certificate
  • Mac App Store installer certificate
  • Apple Transporter app from App Store

Set up your app / version ready for a build to be uploaded at AppStore Connect.

Bundle the completed app for release:

$ fyne release -appID com.example.myapp -appVersion 1.0 -appBuild 1 -category games

Drag the .pkg onto Transporter and tap "Deliver".

Go to back to the AppStore Connect website, choose your build for the release and submit for review.

Google Play Store (Android)

Prerequisites:

  • Google Play Console account
  • distribution keystore (creation instructions in android docs)

Set up your app / version ready for build to be uploaded at Google Play Console. Turn off "Play app signing" option as we manage it ourselves.

Bundle the completed app for release:

$ fyne release -os android -appID com.example.myapp -appVersion 1.0 -appBuild 1

Drag the .apk file into the build drop zone on the app version page in Play Console

Start rollout of new version.

iOS App Store (since fyne 1.4.1)

Prerequisites:

  • Apple mac running macOS and Xcode
  • Apple Developer account
  • iOS App Store distribution certificate
  • Apple Transporter app from App Store

Set up your app / version ready for a build to be uploaded at AppStore Connect.

Bundle the completed app for release:

$ fyne release -os ios -appID com.example.myapp -appVersion 1.0 -appBuild 1

Drag the .ipa onto Transporter and tap "Deliver".

Go to back to the AppStore Connect website, choose your build for the release and submit for review.
