Hello - Asking a question that's probably been asked, and maybe a couple more. I bought a membership yesterday and received the email, I'm assuming it's "approved", but when I log in on developer account it says "PENDING". I will be the only user on my account. I already have the app, it's been tested by another party and all I need do is make some minor changes. So that's done, now I need to create a "debug or release testing distribution", but when I do that I get this error in xCode. Is this normal...until my status changes from "PENDING" to (guessing) APPROVED? And one further question. I am the only developer, and this app will only be used by one person as it's specialized for a single purpose. What are the option for that person to install the app? Is there a special section on the app store for such an app?

Thanks, Gary

It looks like you're trying to use your personal team to upload your app. Please use your Apple Developer Programs account once it has been approved.

Hi, Appreciate that, thanks. That link is helpful DO you know how long does it take to go from PENDING to APPROVED ?

Could you also let me know on this question: This app will only be used by one person as it's specialized for a single purpose. What are the options for that person to install the app? Is there a special section on the app store for such an app?

Thanks,Gary

For your question about how long to expect review to take, please see the following post (App Review FAQ): https://forums.developer.apple.com/forums/thread/131256

If your app is intended to be used by specific customers or businesses, then here is a good starting place for looking into how to set that up: https://developer.apple.com/custom-apps/

Thanks, all helpful links and I will read them. When I was talking about PENDING and APPROVED, I was talking about developer membership when looking at my account info. I used my credit card to pay for the one-year membership on the apple store Tuesday, and got an email my card was charged (from my bank) However, upon checking today that charge was never sent for clearance by Apple to my bank, for unknown reasons, so it was not on my charges today as PENDING or POSTED. So I withdrew that membership and redid the payment today, so let's see tomorrow morning if Apple puts the charge through tonight!
