I. Creating developer accounts
Before you can upload your you we will need to create developer accounts for desired markets (Apple and Google). Apple has an annual fee of $99, and Google has a onetime fee of $25.You can set up your Apple developer account here and Google developer account here.
After you set up your developer accounts, you can publish your app to Stores.
Some extra steps are required to activate your account in Google. You need to add a user to the developer account so that Snappii can submit your apps to Google Play through our editor.
Note: We will not have access to your other Google information (Gmail, drive, etc…). This is solely to integrate with our app editor to make future app updates hassle-free.
- Login to your developer account https://play.google.com/apps/publish/
- Go to Settings
- Then User Accounts and Rights
- Click Invite New User Button
- Input support_android@snappii.com in the Email Address field
- Select Release Manager Role and then Send Invitation
- Snappii will accept your invitation
- Check your email for Snappii’s acceptance letter and complete the steps to grant access.
Don’t worry, you only have to do this process once. If the process looks scary, feel free to contact support at any time via support@snappii.com or a Live Chat . We’re always more than willing to help!
