I have an app I'm almost ready to publish. I would like to make a view for the watch for it but just wondering if there is anything I should consider first. From what I can tell if you add Watchkit to an existing iPhone app, it doesn't really affect the app as an iPhone app - is that right? Is there anything that changes on an iPhone app when you add Watchkit other than it will (after launch) show up in the Watch app store as well as the regular app store?
Should I publish first, then add Watchkit, then update? Maybe for purposes of it being published quicker? I'd like to be in the Watch store on launch day, is that possible?
thank you

It depends on your specifications. You can publish first your iPhone app without implement any WatchKit version, and then, update with a new version that includes the WatchKit extension.
You have to take into account that if you start a submission process, you can't start another for the same app until Apple approve or reject your app. Of course, you can reject the submission before Apple notify you, in order to upload your new version.

I have a confusion about my Application which is removed from sale by my self by Deselecting All countries from Rights & Pricing section. The reason why i have to do this is because i want to launch it into App store with new Update.
My Question is in this scenario will Apple Approve this Update version of the Application.
If No then is there any alternate solution for it please guide me friends.
Thanks in Advance.
When you remove app from sale Apple just hide your app from App Store.
Your app is not removed from App Store.
You can go ahead and release the update of your application.
Wait for Apple to approve it.
And release it on App Store.
Removing App by Deselecting All countries will just hide the Application from the store its still there ready for sale so while Update this App Apple will treat it similar like a normal App Update & will Approve it if all the things are correct.
Hope this Helps.

Let's assume that somehow my company manages to get the Developer name changed in the Developer Account at the App Store. In this case, what would happen to the existing apps:
Will the existing apps remain happily at the App Store without any effect?
Will I need to get new certificates from the Developer portal?
If yes, will I need to submit a new build of my Apps to the App Store?
If yes, will the bundle identifier of my subsequent releases would be different?
If yes, then how would the users be able to get updates to the apps?
Any help would be great!
I asked about it here, and we made renaming.
Non of our apps were forced to be resubmitted. We used all certificates with old names and it worked fine. I can't provide info about legal information that we send to Apple (not a coders did that), but one day we just saw another company name in the App Store and we did nothing to our apps.

I have submitted a App and now I want to update it by changing the App icon.
So Is it possible to Change App Icon after the App is Approved?
You can update the app with new Icon. Create a new version of the app, update the App icon and submit again.
No.
You will have to submit the App again. However, I suggest you try and request an expedited review, stating the only thing changed is the icon and state your reason.
Have you checked the iTunes Connect Developer Guide? If you don't want to go through the review process again, you could try to use the Contact us form in iTunes Connect, to get in touch with the review people at Apple. Maybe you would get the provision to change the App Store Icon.
NO
only u can change in upgrade version

Has anybody tried to submit the same app with different name to the app store?
Assumed that the app is under the same iOS developer program account, and is not a lite version.
Thanks ^m^
Don't. You should not try to submit the same app under a different name to the App Store. It is not how the App Store works. As #Jeremiah said, there is a similar thread on StackOverflow: Can I submit the same app to the App Store under multiple, different accounts/identities? and in it, #bobwaycott notes that the App Store Guidelines state:
2.20 Developers "spamming" the App Store with many versions of similar
apps will be removed from the iOS
Developer Program
Yes, all you have to do is to copy your project to a different location, and rename it:

It will be treated as a different project with configuration rewritten by xcode.

A friend of mine told me that there is a new rule to pass the appstore approval process. The app also have to work on iPad otherwise it would get rejected. I didn't find something which supports his statement. Does somebody know what is true?
Yes, it is part of the new App Store guidelines posted by Apple.
Section 2.10 says: iPhone apps must also run on iPad without modification, at iPhone resolution, and at 2X iPhone 3GS resolution.
You normally need a dev account to read these guidelines, but in the meantime they have been mirrored by other people. Google for "app store guidelines" and you'll find the document.
