How to disable Sandbox Mode for app in new Facebook Developer? - facebook

I can not see an option to disable that in the new Developers design!

Its seems they have moved this option to the "Status & Review" section.
When accessing this section you will see this text: Do you want to make this app and all its live features available to the general public? And a button where you can change it to "Yes" or "No".

before go to the "Status & Review" option, first you need to go to settings option and add "Contact Email", then go to "Status & Review" When accessing this section you will see this text: Do you want to make this app and all its live features available to the general public? And a button where you can change it to "Yes" or "No".

Our app went to the sandbox mode automatically after a while.
We had to fill the 'privacy policy' url, after that we could disable sandbox mode again.
So make sure you have everything filled in correctly.

Y Solved it in Settings-->Contact Email: type it.
Then go to Status & Review and put it on the Do you want to make this app and all its live features available to the general public? option at top of the page.
Also make sure that the age restrictions +13 and country is not set.

I want to remove my app, which is currently marked "Ready for sale", from the App Store. I could not find any documentation on this, and there is no "Remove from Sale" option in the "Manage Your Apps" section of iTunes Connect. Can anyone guide me on how I can remove my app from the App Store?
I have found one solution here but I'm not able to do it that link here they mentioned some steps like i have given below.
Go to “Manage Your Applications” and select the app.
Click “Rights and Pricing” (blue button at the top right.
Below the availability date and price tier section, you should see a grid of checkboxes for the various countries your app is available in. Click the blue “Deselect All” button.
Click “Save Changes” at the bottom.
But the problem is not not able find the grid checkboxes for the countries. Its showing like this.
So please tell me how to remove the app from the app store .
Thanks.
Click where it says "specific territories" in blue and you'll see the grid.
From there tap the 'deselect all' option and your app will be removed from sale

How to Change App name in iTunes Connect

Is there anyway to change the app name in iTunes connect.Previously we followed the the below procedure to change app name,
1. Log in to Itunes Connect
2. Click "Manage applications"
3. Click on your app
4. Click "View details"
5. Click on Edit (At the right of "Version information")
6. Edit your app name.
But currently it is not working, Is there is any way to change app name.
Please give me the solution.
After some confusion I managed to change my app name (while it was in status 'Prepare for Upload' - not sure if this works for other statuses):
Log in to Itunes Connect
Click "Manage applications"
Click on your app
Click "View details" under your current version
Click on Edit next to "Metadata and Uploads"
And then you can edit the name.
The only way you can edit a App Name (assuming the app has been approved) is by creating a new version, at that point you can modify it.
Apple has removed the tables that once referenced what could be updated during what statuses. Now Apple has outlined exactly what CAN be change while the app is in the 'Ready for Sale' status. Anything else will require a new version to be created.
You can change the following store metadata while an app’s version has
the “Ready for Sale” status:
Copyright, Routing App Coverage File
Description, What’s New in this Version
Support URL, Marketing URL, and Privacy Policy URL
App Store Contact Information Language support, including adding new languages
and changing the default language
EULA
Source: Apple iOS Developer Guide
Its place on the renewed iTunes Connect interface is under 'Versions' tab:
To rename existing application on App Store you can create New Version and
then enter app-name in Name field.
This name will be displayed now as the name of your app on the App Store. This can't be longer than 255 characters.
There would be some confusion around that, the reason is that the name you put on the app store (on iTunesConnect) can be different from the name given within Xcode (under build settings)..
So if your app name is displayed properly on the app store, but when you download it, the name is different, it's because Apple doesn't apply the name given on iTunesConnect to the binary that people download..
Which means you have to recompile and reupload as new version..
The way to change your App 'Name' or 'Subtitle' seems to have changed slightly.
First need to create a 'new version' of your app, use the option: "+ VERSION OR PLATFORM" (shown in the image below), then after saving that new version, you can click on the "App Information" (shown in the image below), and in that form you now can edit the "Name" and "Subtitle" (which will both be reviewed by Apple before your new version if the app becomes available on the App store).
This new name and subtitle will be used for the new version of your app on the app store.

Reject binary with state waiting for review (can't find reject binary button)

I want to reject binary which is waiting for review and when I go to the path that Developer Guide specifies I can't find the button to reject the binary.
In iTunes connect, from 'My apps', select
Click your application, then
Make sure you are on the 'Versions' tab, and that the correct version is selected.
Click 'Remove this version from review' located in the info bubble.
See below
As a few people have commented/upvoted on #ThomasRS's accepted answer, for whatever reason, even though my app's status was "Waiting for review", the blue bar with the "To submit a new build, you must remove this version from review" message did not appear on the iTunes Connect website on my app's "Waiting for review" version page.
However, I did see a "Reject this binary" link in the iTunes Connect iOS application:
Steps to access that page:
Open the iTunes Connect app on your iOS device.
Sign in with your iTunes credentials when prompted.
Open the Products tab (along the bottom).
Tap your application.
On that screen, tap "Reject This Binary".
This has all changed with the re-design (as of 12-Sept-2014) you now need to:
Open the App Details page for the app, as described in To open the App
Details page for an app.
On Versions, above the app's metadata, this message appears: "You can
only edit all information while your version is waiting for review. To
submit a new build, you must remove this version from review." Click
"remove this version from review"
See: Viewing and Changing Your Apps Status and Availability
After the changes in iTunesConnect Portal, Here are the new steps:
Login to iTunes Connect.
Click on My Apps option.
Select app for which you want to reject binary.
Select the version from the left side.
Reject binary (visible on right side)
You just need to click on remove this version from review (denoted by arrow in above image)
In my case the link to reject appeared after 5-10 minutes after submit, so try to wait 10 minutes.
I went through the struggle of this as well. I tried everything StackOverflow told me nothing worked. So I did some digging on the site itself and this worked for me.
Right click the site in chrome and click "inspect".
Click "Elements"
Search for "showDevRejectModal".
Double click the class parent of this element where it says "ng-modal ng-isolate-scope ng-hide".
Delete the "ng-hide".
You may reject your binary at any time. It will be removed from the review queue and you will go to 'the back of the line' as it were if/when you resubmit your app for review.
From the Developer Guide (log in required):
When the status of your app is...
In Review...you can
reject the binary you have submitted
by clicking Reject Binary from the
Binary Details page...
From the new version of iTunes connect, here is what you have to do:
login to iTunes connect. Go to my apps and click on the app for which you wish to reject binary.
In the app details page you will see a particular section, in the Versions tab:
Click on the link 'remove this version from Review'
Once you do that, go to the Build Section of your app - you will see a '-' button when you hower over the mouse above the version number.
Click on the '-' button and your build is removed from the Review Queue.
Pl. note - every build that is removed, will result in further delay to the app- approval time, as your queue position is lost!!
Or you can remove it in Build section.
"reject bubble" didn't appear in my case as well. While searching on the web I've found this thread which suggested to use the API request below:
After I've pasted the link in the browser and reload the itunes page, the bubble appeared so I could reject the binary:
https://itunesconnect.apple.com/WebObjects/iTunesConnect.woa/ra/app/[app_id]/versions/[version_id]/reject
Make sure to use you app's [app_id] and [version_id] in the request above
Just execute the final request and it should do the trick (pasting the final string with the correct app_id and version_id into your browser's address line should work for this)
Hopefully this option may help someone else.
I had to switch to Safari from Chrome to see the button

Where can I find my Facebook application id and secret key?

In my Facebook account, where can I find these application IDs, secret key, all?
You should use the Developer App.
On the right is a section titled "My Applications" from which you can select an application to see its information.
You can also go straight here as well, which will list your apps on the left.
From 2018:
Go to Settings -> Basic -> App Secret (type your password and you're ready to go).
I had a hard time finding where it is so here the image depicting it in 2019.
Just simply click on your app name and look on your right, you app id should be there
For your app secret, u have to click show.
Hope that helps !
Make a Facebook app with these simple steps I have written below:

Your AppId and Appkey is created automatically. The AppSecretKey is obfuscated. You can click on the show button to see your AppId and AppSecurityKey.
Peter's post is pretty much spot on, but if you want to learn how to navigate to it yourself here are the instructions:
On the left hand menu, you need to click "more", then you'll see "Developer", click on it. Afterwards you'll be presented with a page where your apps are listed under "My Applications" click on "See my applications". You can find all your API Key, secrets, and IDs there.
It is under Account -> Application Settings, click on your application's profile, then go to Edit Application.
Dashboard -> [your app] -> [View Details] -> Settings -> Basic
source
url https://developers.facebook.com/apps
here you'll see all apps listed after that go to Settings then click on Basic
then App Secret input then click on show now you can see your app secert key.

Creating Application URL for iPhone

I am preparing to submit my iPhone app for approval. This is my first time. One of the requirements is "Application URL".
I have done the following to create Application URL:
Click Foo-Info.plist
Right Click Information Property List"
Click "Add Row"
Select URL types
Expand "URL Types"
Expand Item 0
Type in "com.mycompany.Foo" in the Value field with "URL Identifier" key
I am wondering if I do this correctly.
Thanks in advance for your help.
That looks correct, except you put in too much work! When uploading an app, the application URL is a URL with information on the app - as in an actual website! The only reason why apple asks you for this is because some buyers want to know exactly what they are paying for. If you don't have one, don't worry. This is optional.
