To submit an iOS app to the App Store, you must be a member of the Apple Developer Program. Once you have signed up for the program and have access to the App Store Connect portal, you can follow these steps to submit your app:

1. Create an App Store Connect record for your app by logging in to the App Store Connect portal and clicking on the “My Apps” tab.
2. Fill out the app’s metadata, including its name, description, and category. This information will be used to help users find your app on the App Store.
3. Upload your app’s binary file, which contains the code and assets for your app. You can do this using Xcode, Apple’s integrated development environment (IDE).
4. Test your app on a device to make sure it functions as expected. You can use the TestFlight app to invite testers to try out your app before it is released.
5. Once you are satisfied with your app, submit it for review. The App Store review team will review your app to ensure it meets the App Store’s guidelines and standards.
6. After your app has been reviewed and approved, it will be available on the App Store for users to download and use.

It’s important to note that the review process can take several days, so you should plan accordingly and submit your app well in advance of any planned marketing or promotional efforts. Additionally, you should regularly update your app to fix bugs and add new features to keep users engaged.
