App Store Connect for iOS gets major update with new interface and features

After releasing a major update to TestFlight last month, Apple is now updating App Store Connect for iOS with a new interface as well as many new features – including more detailed notifications and more ways to promote apps. Read on as we break down what’s changed in App Store Connect.

What’s new with App Store Connect 2.0

For those unfamiliar, App Store Connect is the platform where developers can manage their apps available for Apple platforms such as iOS and watchOS.

Version 2.0 of App Store Connect for iPhone and iPad introduces a new, more modern interface, but the changes go beyond that. The update also comes with many new features that will help developers better manage their apps right from their iOS devices.

For example, developers can now choose to receive notifications when an app is highlighted by Apple in places like the Today tab or as App of the Day. There’s also the option to filter notifications for user reviews based on star ratings, such as only receiving a notification when someone submits a 1-star review.

In addition, Apple is introducing a new way for developers to promote their apps by generating marketing assets for key moments, such as when a new app or update is approved in the App Store. App Store Connect will generate images ready to be shared on social networks such as Instagram.

This update to App Store Connect follows a major update to TestFlight released last month that also introduced a new design to the app.

App Store Connect for iOS is available for free on the App Store and requires an iPhone or iPad running iOS 17 or later.
