How toAbout 5 minutesUpdated

Everything about a page is on one screen: the searches it shows for, its screenshots, its promotional text, its deep link and its checks.

Before you start

  • The page is built. Its card on Pages says Ready, not Building. See Build and review pages.
  • The page is not in App Store Connect. A page that is there, in review or live is locked until you take it back.

What is on the screen

The headerThe page’s name, its status, Skip (to the next unapproved page) and Approve page. On Pro, an app with more than one language has a language menu here too. Under it, What this page says is the one message the page makes.
Shows for these searchesThe keywords this page shows for. Add a keyword lists the keywords on no page and the keywords on another page; adding one of those moves it here. A keyword leads to one page only. A page with no keyword says Seen from ads and links instead.
ScreenshotsThe device tabs iPhone 6.9", iPhone 6.5" and iPad 13" show the same page in each size. Edits apply to every device size, so you change a screenshot once. Rebuilds left this month counts the rebuilds your plan gives you. The last card, Add a screenshot, adds one of your screens the page does not use yet.
Each screenshot’s toolsEdit words (or press E) changes the headline on the picture. The phone icon, Use another of your screenshots, puts a different screen in this position. The flag, Something looks wrong, reports a fault and offers a fix. The rebuild menu, New words, or drawn again, offers New headline, Different screenshot and All. Each of those three counts as one rebuild.
The words on the pictureWhile you edit: the headline, Add a line under it, a handle to Drag to move where the words go and to resize their area, Colour of the words, and Reset. A headline holds 45 characters, the line under it 70.
The phone on the rightThe page as the App Store will show it. It changes as you do.
The whole page editor: the header with Skip and Approve page, Shows for these searches with Add a keyword, Screenshots with the device tabs iPhone 6.9 inch, iPhone 6.5 inch and iPad 13 inch, Edit words on each screenshot, Promotional text, Deep link and Checks, with the App Store preview on the right
