App Store Connect

is an app that lets developers manage their App Store apps for iOS. Along with app status, performance, and sales data, developers can also use App Store Connect to respond to reviews.

On Wednesday, the latest version of the app introduced a new option to set up internal TestFlight betas with up to 100 members of a team. Developers can also edit details for beta builds, view build activity and status, expire beta builds, and answer required export compliance questions.

Additionally, the app features a refreshed icon that sports a thin blue outline surrounding a newly designed App Store "a" logo with three-dimensional shading.

Apple last updated App Store Connect with a mobile-friendly redesign in June.
