Configuring Pricing and Availability
- Navigate to Pricing and Availability.
- Set app pricing to free.
- Adjust available countries if necessary.
If you restrict the availability of your app to certain countries, only employees with app store accounts in those countries will be able to find and download your app in the stores. The geographical location of the employee does not matter for accessing the app store.
For example, an app is only available in the French app store. In this case an US American employee would not be able to see the app. A French employee who resides in the USA will still be able to download and use the app while being in the USA. - Select Available with no discount.
- Click Save.
