MacStore submission : app inside an app

65 Views Asked by At

How is it possible to submit and app to MacAppStore, which includes another app?

Should the other app have the same bundle identifier as the main app?

You should read the Daemons and Services Programming Guide : "Applications can contain a helper application as a full application bundle, stored inside the main application bundle in the Contents/Library/LoginItems directory. Set either the LSUIElement or LSBackgroundOnly key in the Info.plist file of the helper application’s bundle."

Of course both applications must be sandboxed. The second application can't have the same bundle identifier than the main application because a bundle identifier must be unique on the device.
