App Store does not show my app after approval

Question

I developed iOS app, and I uploaded binary of my app on 19th August 2013.

Today(23rd August 2013) I got mail from Apple saying that "your app is Ready for sale" with Green dot in my iTunes Connect. but it doesnot show any links to my app in in App Store in my iTunes Connect account

This is my first version of app,

Here is screenshot of my rights and pricing section from my iTunes Connect account.

How should I live my app in app store or it will be automatically live in the store ?

: Thanks in advance.

Solution 1

I might be wrong, can't remember connect that well, been a few months since I last published an app.

Check the following:

1. Price Tier Selected
2. That you have selected some countries stores where you would like the app to be sold (distributed)
3. Lastly it might take about 24 hours for the app to propagate to all app stores.

Check again tomorrow on the store. Your release date does look in order since it is a historic date.

Solution 2

Just happened to me too.

Go back into app description, and make a simple edit. Save it.

Two minutes later it will be ready for sale.

Solution 3

From Apple's FAQ:

My app status is Ready for Sale but I cannot see my app on the App Store. Why? The following factors could prevent your app from showing up on the App Store:

• Make sure to check the status of your agreements. If the agreement status is Pending Contract, you may have to agree to the PLA or Paid Applications agreement or complete the associated bank and tax information for that agreement.

• Make sure the availability date provided in the Rights and Pricing section is prior to today's date.

• If the date provided in the Rights and Pricing section is in the past, make sure you made your app available in at least one App Store territory.

• If your app was scheduled to go live within the last 24 hours, the app may still be updating in the App Store cache. Once the 24-hour caching window has passed, close and open iTunes and search for your app again. You can also click View in the App Store from the More tab on your app's page in My Apps.

If you have checked the factors above and the app is still not on the App Store, contact us.

As "Apfelsaft" says, any pending contractual conditions can block the availability of the app in the store. This is my case.

I did this and changed the availability date to current date and our app finally showed up in App Store! It seems like App Store visibility has a bug.

Same for me, my app still isn't in the store after 3 days. I'm dying... with anticipation, of course.

Not sure if it was a coincidence or not, but my app has just appeared after editing the description. Thanks a lot!

Every App relies on the "touch-points" from where a user can click and land on the App's Download page in App Store. As a fix, although not exactly what is required, it is better to use the direct link to your App in iTunes/AppStore by clicking or copying the link of "View in App Store" option within your iTunes Connect's App details.

Is this possible to do this still? I can‘t edit the app description since I submitted my binary. It‘s grayed out :-( Anyone can help?

Based on my experience, the following is the order in which the links above available: 1. Mail from Apple would contain a small right arrow next to your app name, this would open it in iTunes (even when Apps menu doesn't exist in iTunes 12), 2. App Store link on your MyApps page / Open link on App Store, 3. Search on the App Store

What is the URL of that Apple's FAQ to check it from the official source?

[Apfelsaft]

@JaimeMontoya: As far as I can remember it wasn't linkable. I think I saw it after tapping some "Contact Apple" button in iTunes Connect.
