Mobile Application Development
iOS
Checklist
o We need all images for both iPhone and iPad. Sizes must be
perfect or else Selfpub will not accept it.
o Once the checklist is created, a selfpub application should
be made.
o Bundles should be created within the selfpub wizard (this is
being added soon).
o ou should identif! which i"unes #onnect store we will be
using. $t is easier for us to use ours, but it is up to the
publisher.
 $f we use the publisher%s de&eloper pro'le we need
the ()gent )ccount* for i"unes#onnect and )pple
+e&eloper #enter. We also need the pri&ate,public
ke!s from the computer of the agent account holder
("his can be done b! a ke!chain e-port within the
.ac that belongs to the user). "he de&eloper should
ha&e these accounts,ke!s in order to build the app
for the publisher. Our test de&ices should be added
to the publisher%s de&eloper pro'le as well (with their
permission). $n/)pp products should be created in
the publisher%s i"unes #onnect account.
 $f we use our account we must add the publisher%s
de&ices (b! default 0) to our +igitalPanda )pple
+e&eloper Portal for testing and demo purposes.
Since we are onl! allowed 112 de&ices on our 3+
account, we must use other accounts to substitute.
"he i"unes products should be created in both the 3+
and +P accounts.
 "here is also a (Shared Secret* ke! that is used for
each store. $f we use the publisher%s i"unes #onnect
account, the de&eloper must enter this parameter
into the #on'guration of the host.
o i"unes applications should be created in the proper store
and the re4uired Subscription $nformation te-t must be
included.
o i"unes in/app products ha&e 0 t!pes5 #onsumeable and
3on/#onsumeable.
Mobile Application Development
 #onsumeable products do not ha&e to be registered
one b! one and must be bought b! the user e&er!
time he would like to download an issue.
 3on/#onsumeable products can onl! be bought once
and will allow the user to re/download the same issue
onto his,her other de&ices. ()uto/renewable
subscriptions are considered 3on/#onsumeable.)
 3ew )pplications must ha&e auto/renewable
subscriptions, if such a feature is o6ered on the
SmartSite.
o i"unes applications
Bundles and Subscriptions
o Single issue purchase for titles that are issued less than,or
once a week must be 3on/#onsumeable, according to
apple. 7or this we must create a Bundle within Selfpub and
set its orientation to i"unes and Speci'c $ssue Purchase. $ts
product i+ will be the base for a template s!stem5
com.3ewspaper+irect.8)pp3ame9.#$+...++. ou
must create all of the in/app products based on this
template. 7or :-ample5 the .a! 1
st
0211 edition of
;ancou&er Sun app would be
<com.3ewspaper+irect.;ancou&erSun.1222.02112=21%
>>>Once this is done in i"unes#onnect it should ne&er be
deleted or else the product i+ will be lost>>>
o ?sing selfpub the application%s subscriptions should be
setup. "here are two backissue dates on the 'rst page5
3umber of $ssues and @ength of "ime. "hese must be set to
more than the last a&ailable publication date, otherwise
the title will not be a&ailable for download.

(+igitalPanda)
