To get an Editor's Choice feature in the App Store, you can use the "featuring nominations" feature in App Store Connect. Here’s a step-by-step guide based on the information provided:
-
Create a Featuring Nomination:
- Go to the nominations link in the left-hand navigation of the App Store Connect page.
- You will see the nominations dashboard where you can manage all your nominations and create new ones.
- Click the "Get Started" button to create a new nomination. You can either upload a spreadsheet for bulk nominations or create them one at a time.
-
Provide Details:
- When creating a nomination, you will need to provide important details about the feature or content you are introducing.
- Add an expected published date for when the change will make it to the App Store. This can be a tentative or finalized release date.
- Review the draft nomination and add any additional relevant details. Many fields will be pre-populated with data from your app.
-
Highlight Values and Story:
- Include details about the values you live by and the story of how you create your app, such as promoting inclusivity or accessibility. These details are considered by the editorial team when reviewing your submission.
-
Submit for Review:
- Once you have filled in all the necessary details, click the "Submit Nomination" button at the top right of the page.
- Confirm the creation of the nomination. The editorial team will then review your submission and consider it for featuring on the App Store.
-
Notification and Marketing Assets:
