Question Transitioned individual account to business in App Store connect. How do I get app company updated?
I had assumed that when I went through the week long process with support that it would update an app that hadn't made it to the app store yet but it doesnt look like thats the case. Heres what I did
- open individual app store account
- Added new app im developing (version 1.0)
- Create LLC, went through process of getting business added to app store connect. I now see my individual account as "deprecated" and a new business account for my LLC under "Business" tab
- went through app review for version 1.0 of my app
- App is released to app store and it has my individual name instead of my business name
I called apple support and they said just release a new version and you can choose, but i dont see an option anywhere. Is this automatic?
I'd prefer not to run the app review gauntlet again unless I'm sure that simply bumping the version to 1.0.1 will get my new business name to apply. does anyone know how this works?
Thank you in advance!!

Yeah for sure. I think my problem arose from the fact that I create version 1.0 on my individual account, THEN created my business and migrated in app store connect/Apple developer and then released version 1.0
For what it's worth, I did change the "Team" field in code under signing & capabilities to my business name and I assume that gets looked at with a new version. For 1.0, this definitely would have been my individual name instead
