作为私有应用程序的 iOS 应用程序分发

作为私有应用程序的 iOS 应用程序分发

问题描述:

我正在为美国客户(我们称之为 ABC)开发一款 iOS 移动学习应用程序,该应用程序旨在分发给其员工及其渠道合作伙伴.ABC 更喜欢将应用作为私有应用分发,而不是将其托管在应用商店中.

I'm developing an iOS Mobile Learning App for a US based Client ( lets call it ABC) which is meant to be distributed to its employees and its Channel partners. ABC prefers that the app be distributed as a private app rather than hosting it in the app store.

在这方面,我有几个疑问

In this regard, I have few queries

  1. 我可以使用我们的开发者凭据在应用商店中以 ABC 的名义发布应用吗?

  1. Can I publish the app in ABC's name in the app store using our developer credentials ?

我可以使用 ABC 的企业开发者许可证将应用程序私下分发给其员工和渠道合作伙伴吗?可以分发的应用程序数量有限制吗?

Can I use the Enterprise developer license of ABC to distribute the app privately to its employees and channel partners ? Is there a limit for the number of apps that can be distributed ?

如果问题 2 不可行,我们可以使用批量购买计划将应用分发给员工和渠道合作伙伴吗?在这种情况下,我们作为开发团队是否可以发布应用程序,让 ABC 购买应用程序并将其分发给使用 VPP 计划的员工和渠道合作伙伴?购买和分发的应用程序数量是否有数量限制?

If question no.2 is not possible, can we use the Volume Purchase program to distribute the app to the employees and channel partners ? In this case, can we , as the development team publish the app and let ABC purchase and distribute the app to its employees and channel partners using the VPP program ? Is there a volume limit for the number of apps purchased and distributed ?

简而言之,将应用作为私有应用分发给 ABC 的员工和渠道合作伙伴的最佳方式是什么?

In short, what is the best way to distribute an app as a private app to ABC's employees and channel partners ?

看来 企业批量购买计划是除 App Store 之外的唯一选择.

It seems that the Volume Purchase Program for Business is the only option other than the App Store.

苹果:

分发给您确定的授权买家,为您的客户提供隐私和安全.

Distribute to authorized buyers that you identify, giving your customers privacy and security.

自定义应用程序会私下分发给您在 iTunes Connect 中确定的已授权企业批量购买计划成员.客户在批量购买计划商店中登录并购买他们的应用.

Custom apps are distributed privately to authorized Volume Purchase Program for Business members that you identify in iTunes Connect. Customers sign in and purchase their apps on the Volume Purchase Program store.

企业计划仅限于公司员工.

The Enterprise program is limited to company employees.
