Phase 0 · ios
Judge Apple’s 7 asks + recording sub-items against features
Use the Applies / Status grid on this page. Skip N/A rows (driver payments, subscriptions, regulated docs). Do every Applies=yes row that is still To do.
Do not Submit / Resolution Center yet
Prep only until you decide to send: attach build, screenshots, notes paste. Do not run npm run asc:submit. Do not reply until both recordings exist.
Play production is a separate track
Do not treat the 2.1 playbook as a Play launch. Ship Play after explicit OK (and after DUNS / org setup if required).
Phase 1 · ios
Customer purchase demo (A or B)
A (stronger): complete a small real CAD charge on the demo account so reviewers see PaymentSheet → success. B (weaker): stop at PaymentSheet and rely on seeded Orders. Live Stripe charges real cards; test cards fail. Applies only to customer (1b).
UGC Report binary (1c)
Report UI is in source (chat → legal@). Do not claim it in notes unless that control is in the attached TestFlight binary. Prefer: ship a new build with Report, then send. No block UI in either app.
Canada territory on ASC (supports #6)
Pricing and Availability must include Canada. Toronto zone is app logic; storefront country is ASC.
Mic / Face ID purpose strings (5.1.1)
Unused Expo leftovers in Info.plist. Either tell Apple they are not prompted (notes already say this), or strip in a new native build (OTA cannot fix plist).
Phase 2 · ios
Re-seed demo orders
From umameats-customer-mobile: node scripts/seed-review-account.js. Writes two DELIVERED orders for the demo customer. Do not delete appreview@.
Install TestFlight 89+
Physical iPhone → TestFlight → UMAMEATS → build 89 or later (not attached build 45). Smoke login; Home must list Toronto restaurants for 250 Front St W.
Record Guideline 2.1 video (never done)
Physical device only. Shot list: cold launch → throwaway signup + delete → demo login → location → Home → menu → cart → PaymentSheet → Orders → Delete UI cancel. Include Report only if in this binary. Save UMAMEATS-customer-2.1-YYYYMMDD.mp4 — keep off git.
Fill device + iOS tested (#2)
After recording, write exact model + iOS into Notes DEVICES line and the Resolution Center reply. Do not invent.
Real-app screenshots (2.3.3) — 0 on ASC
Capture Home / menu / customize / orders / account from the running binary (not splash, not marketing mockups). Upload via ASC UI or npm run screenshots:upload.
Push 7-point App Review notes to ASC (#3–7)
Git notes.txt already has SERVICES / REGIONS / REGULATED / no-IAP. Fill DEVICES, then ASC_DEMO_PASSWORD=… npm run asc:review-details (or paste). Password stays in App Review Information fields only.
Attach build 89+ on version 1.0.0
ASC Build picker — select TestFlight 89+. Save. This does not submit. Do not run asc:submit yet.
npm run asc:audit
Read-only blockers list. Green audit ≠ permission to submit.
Phase 3 · ios
Re-seed demo driver + READY offer
From umameats-driver-mobile: npm run seed:review-driver. Re-run if smoke already accepted the offer. Do not delete driverreview@.
Install TestFlight 46+ + wipe checks
Go Online and Accept must not dump to Sign In. Force-quit → still logged in. Camera for POD; Location Always for active delivery only.
Record Guideline 2.1 video (never done)
Physical device only. Login → Online → READY offer → Accept → navigation → status → POD camera → Earnings optional → Delete UI cancel. No purchase flow (N/A). Save UMAMEATS-driver-2.1-YYYYMMDD.mp4 off git.
Fill device + iOS tested (#2)
After recording, write exact model + iOS into Notes DEVICES line and Resolution Center reply.
Replace mockup screenshots (2.3.3)
Four real shots: Online+offer, navigation, active, account. Delete old mockups on ASC. Size 1320×2868 or 1290×2796.
Push 7-point driver notes to ASC (#3–7)
Git notes.txt has SERVICES / REGIONS / REGULATED / no payments. Fill DEVICES, then asc:review-details (or paste).
Attach build 46+ on version 1.0.0
Attaching alone does NOT restart an UNRESOLVED_ISSUES review. You still need Resolution Center reply + resubmit when ready.
Phase 4 · ios
Customer: Resolution Center + Submit
Attach the .mp4, paste the short 2.1 reply from APP_STORE_REVIEW_CUSTOMER.md, confirm build 89+, then Submit (ASC or npm run asc:submit -- --build-number 89).
Driver: Reply AND resubmit
UNRESOLVED_ISSUES requires both: Resolution Center reply (with .mp4) and a resubmit. Selecting build 46 alone will not resume review.
Phase 5 · android
One-time Play + signing setup
Play Console app (com.umameats.customer / driver), Play App Signing, service account → Users and permissions (Release manager), google-services.json + FCM on EAS, Android OAuth SHA-1 (upload + App signing cert).
First Internal testing AAB
npm run build:android:internal or ./scripts/play/first-internal-build.sh. Confirm release in Play Console → Internal testing. Smoke with the same demo accounts as iOS.
Store listing + Data safety + IARC
Assets under play/listing/en-CA/. Feature graphic 1024×500, phone screenshots 1080×1920. Complete Data safety, content rating, target audience before production review.
Production draft → review → rollout
git tag v* → release-android.yml cuts production draft. Promote / Submit - Play Store with as_draft:false when ready. Staged rollout after approval.
Org / DUNS note
Play org + Apple org may need DUNS. Until then: EAS preview APK for Android QA, or Play individual ($25) then transfer. Do not block iOS 2.1 on Play.
