How do I get my app approved for emergency alerts

To get your app approved for emergency alerts, you would need to follow the guidelines and processes outlined by Apple for app submissions and updates. Here are some steps you can take based on the information provided in the WWDC sessions:

1. Create a Featuring Nomination: You can submit a featuring nomination in App Store Connect to inform the editorial team about the new emergency alert feature in your app. This involves providing a high-level description, the type of change (e.g., app enhancements), and relevant details about the new content and enhancements. For more details, you can refer to the What’s new in App Store Connect session.

2. Testing Enhancements: Use TestFlight to gather feedback on the new emergency alert feature. This will help you ensure that the feature works as intended and meets user expectations. You can set up TestFlight invitations and provide beta app information to testers. For more information, see the What’s new in App Store Connect session.

3. Provide Detailed Descriptions: When creating your nomination, make sure to provide a detailed description of the emergency alert feature. This helps the editorial team understand the importance and functionality of the feature. You can find more about this process in the What’s new in App Store Connect session.

4. Promote Inclusivity and Accessibility: Highlight any aspects of the emergency alert feature that promote inclusivity or accessibility. This can be done through the helpful details input in your nomination, which the editorial team will consider during their review. More details can be found in the What’s new in App Store Connect session.

By following these steps, you can increase the chances of your app being approved for emergency alerts and potentially being featured on the App Store.
