Care and Feeding of MandArt3

When Making Changes in XCode

  1. Menu / Source Control / Pull: always pull first, before starting work
  2. Menu / Source Control / Commit: after changes (check Push, add message)

When Making a New Release

1. In XCode, Increment Build Number by 1 and Create Archive

  1. XCode / Search / "version". Increment version number in 3 places:
    • Info.plist - Build Version
    • Info.plist - Bundle versions string, short
    • MandArt.xcodeproj / Build Settings / Marketing Version
  2. Menu / Product / Destination - set to Any Mac
  3. Menu / Product / Archive

It will take a while to create the build bundle. After a few minutes, you'll see it in the Archives List. The new archive will be highlighted at the top of the list. You can delete old ones whenever you like.

2. In XCode, Archives List, Upload the Build Bundle to App Store Connect

  1. Click Distribute App. Verify "App Store Connect" is selected.
  2. Click Next. Verify "Upload" is selected.
  3. Click Next. It may take a while. Verify both "Upload your app's symbols" and "Manage Version and Build Number" are selected.
  4. Click Next. Verify "Automatically manage signing" is selected.
  5. Click Next. It'll take a while. Verify Architectures lists both kinds.
  6. Click Upload. When you get the green checkmark, you're good.
  7. Click Done.

You were successful!

3. Go to App Store Connect and Prepare and Submit a New Release

  1. Open Safari.
  2. Go to App Store Connect.
  3. Select My Apps.
  4. Click on MandArt app name.
  5. Click on blue plus sign in the upper left corner. A window will pop up.
  6. Type new store version number (e.g. 7.1) and click Create.
  7. Update Describe What's New text, other content. Screenshots must be 1440x900px.

  9. Click Add Build button.
  10. Select the incremented build bundle recently uploaded.
  11. Click Done.
  12. Manage missing compliance (no encryption), so select "None..". Click Save.
  13. On the "App Store" tab, click Save (in upper right).
  14. Click Add for Review.
  15. Click Submit to App Review. Verify process is complete.

4. In XCode, Commit and Push the Changed Project Info to GitHub

  1. XCode menu / Source Control / Commit ... check push, type message, click button to send changes to GitHub.

Reminders

  • The build / bundle must be incremented by one whole number (e.g. 7, 8, 9...)
  • The marketing version number in App Store Connect can be whatever you like (e.g. 7.1)

Screenshots (1440x900)

  • Use Command + Shift 5 to set the clipped window size to 1440 x 900.
  • Capture the screenshots you like.
  • Upload them in the order to display, e.g. first uploaded will appear first.
