It\u2019s grown into a vibrant platform with great apps that influence culture and change lives, with over half a billion visitors each week. This wide-reaching platform has helped generate over $155 billion in developer earnings \u2014 just from sales of apps and in-app purchases. Today, the App&nbsp;Store gives you the opportunity to connect with users in 155 countries or regions. We\u2019re pleased to announce that the App&nbsp;Store will expand even farther this year with upcoming support for 20 new countries, allowing you to increase your impact and grow your business in new markets.<\/p>\n<p>To allow your app to appear in these new countries, your membership Account&nbsp;Holder first needs to accept the updated Program License Agreement by signing in to their account on the Apple&nbsp;Developer website. If you have a Paid Applications Agreement, the Account&nbsp;Holder will also need to accept this updated agreement in App&nbsp;Store&nbsp;Connect. You can then select the \u201cNew Countries or Regions\u201d checkbox in the Pricing and Availability section of your app information page to automatically make your app available in all new countries. Completing these steps by April 10, 2020 will help make sure your app is ready to be published as content initially becomes available across new locations. We\u2019ll let you know when you can choose from specific new countries and update the default subscription pricing for these locations.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/developer.apple.com\/account\/\">View <span class=\"icon icon-after icon-chevronright nowrap\">your account<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Thanks to the creativity and innovation of developers like you, the App&nbsp;Store has become much more than the world\u2019s safest marketplace.
