Why is my App not listed in the App Store?

App missing from the App store? Find out why!

If your App isn't listed in the App Store, your Developer Program membership may have expired. However, other reasons, such as propagation delays, pending agreements, or search indexing issues, could also be responsible.

Below are quick steps to renew your membership, plus troubleshooting steps to ensure your app appears in the App Store.

  1. Pull up your Apple Developer website.

  2. Log in with the user with the Account Holder role.

  3. Click the option to renew your membership.

  4. Verify your Apple Developer account is active and compliant.

  5. Check for any pending agreements or billing issues, and resolve them in App Store Connect > Agreements.

Once renewed, it may take up to 24 hours to appear in the App Store, as the app may need time to fully populate. During this period, the app will eventually be labeled “Ready for Sale.”Apple will automatically reinstate your app on the App Store after renewal, and you typically don't need to take any additional steps, as long as your account is active and in good standing.
