Introducing precheck
precheck is a great, nifty tool that fits well into the publishing fastlane workflow, and it aids developers in pre-checking apps for metadata, looking for many of the common causes of app rejections. You can either use the keywork precheck
or the alias check_app_store_metadata
. The following is the logo for precheck:
Precheck scours the app metadata, verifying, against a list of keywords and reference sources, that the app does not include:
- Product bug mentions
- Profanity
- Broken URL links
- Placeholder text, future features mentioning
- Copyright date errors
- Customizable word list checking
Running a precheck
The best way to see how this app works is to run it, by entering:
