iOS App Submission Checklist Generator is a focused, free online tool that turns your app details into a dated, review-ready App Store submission checklist: metadata and app details, App Store Connect configuration, privacy labels and manifests, App Review guideline compliance, build and archive readiness, marketing assets, and release management. Paste your app description and submission notes into the primary input, pick your app category, submission type, and privacy handling, generate the checklist, and copy or download it — no sign-in required.
Generate your submission checklist on the first screen
Paste your app description and submission details into the Primary input, choose the app category, submission type, and privacy handling, then generate the checklist. The iOS App Submission Checklist Generator produces a dated, deterministic report with seven sections covering app metadata, App Store Connect configuration, privacy labels and manifests, App Review guideline compliance, build and archive readiness, marketing assets, and release management. Read the readiness report in the output panel, then copy it as text or export it as JSON, CSV, or PDF.
How to generate a submission checklist
Paste your app description and submission details — app name, category, keywords, monetization model, permissions, and anything else you have ready — into the primary input, choose the app category, submission type (new app or version update), and privacy handling, then generate the checklist. The iOS App Submission Checklist Generator produces a dated, deterministic report with seven sections covering metadata, App Store Connect configuration, privacy, App Review compliance, build readiness, marketing assets, and release management. Every item carries a priority (Required, Recommended, or Blocking) and a status, so you can see at a glance what stands between you and a complete submission.
How attention flags are decided
The generator scans your input for review-relevant signals — subscriptions and in-app purchases (guideline 3.1), account and login flows (guideline 5.1.1), location, camera, contacts, or photo permissions (guideline 5.1.2), advertising and tracking (ATT), age-rated content, and web views. Each detected signal turns the matching checklist item into an attention or blocking item with a short note naming the guideline. A game submitted under Games, for example, automatically gains Game Center and age-rating items, while a Health & Fitness app gains guideline 5.1.3 data-protection checks. The mapping is deterministic and stated in the report's limitations, so you always know which items are verified facts and which are advisory.
What every checklist report contains
A report always records the app input, the chosen category, submission type, and privacy handling, the items checked in each of the seven sections with priority and status, the detected review signals, the KPI summary, the timestamp of the run, and the limitations of the generator. Reports are produced deterministically in the browser and can be copied as text or exported as JSON, CSV, or PDF for your submission tracker.
How your inputs and reports are handled
All generation runs locally in your browser. No account, sign-in, or payment is required, and nothing you paste is uploaded. Recent checklists and saved notes persist only in your browser's local storage behind the product's data adapter, and you decide what to do with a report — the tool never publishes anything on your behalf.
Frequently Asked Questions
What does the iOS App Submission Checklist Generator produce?
It produces a dated, deterministic App Store submission checklist for your app: seven sections covering app metadata, App Store Connect configuration, privacy labels and manifests, App Review guideline compliance, build and archive readiness, marketing assets, and release management, each item with a priority and status.
Do I need an Apple Developer account to use the tool?
No. The tool generates the checklist from your app description and submission details alone. You still need an Apple Developer account and App Store Connect access to act on the checklist, but the generator itself is free and needs no sign-in.
How accurate are the App Review guideline mappings?
Items map to the public App Review guidelines (2.1 performance, 3.1 in-app purchases, 4.0 design, 5.1.1 accounts, 5.1.2 data usage, and similar) as published by Apple. Guidelines change over time, so every report records its generation date and lists its limitations; treat the checklist as a preparation aid, not legal or guarantee-of-approval advice.
Can I keep or share a checklist?
Yes. Every checklist can be copied as text or exported as JSON, CSV, or PDF from the output area. The tool never posts a checklist anywhere; sharing is always your own action.
Does the tool handle privacy labels and privacy manifests?
Yes. The privacy section checks the App Store Connect privacy nutrition labels, the Xcode 15+ privacy manifest, required-reason API declarations, and the App Tracking Transparency prompt, and flags any of them as attention items when your description mentions tracking or advertising.
