Release Your .NET MAUI iOS App to the Apple App Store

Hooray! You have your .NET MAUI iOS app ready, and want to publish it to the Apple App Store. In this video I will walk you through ALL THE STEPS (there is a lot…) needed to generate a signed .NET MAUI iOS IPA file that can be sent to the App Store, ready for publishing! In addition to showing you how to do this from Visual Studio 2022, I will also tell you how you can do it from your automated build pipeline.
