    QUICK ANSWER

    Google Play Console costs a one-time $25 registration fee. Apple Developer Program costs $99/year. Once registered, you can publish unlimited free and paid apps.

    Google requires a one-time identity verification fee with unlimited app uploads for life. Apple charges an annual recurring membership to keep your developer certificates active and your applications live on the iOS App Store.

    Pro-Level Best Practices

    • Prepare your app store icons, privacy policy URL, and screenshots in advance before submitting for review.
    • Use Google Play Internal Testing tracks and Apple TestFlight to distribute beta builds to testers prior to production release.

    Common Pitfalls to Avoid

    • Forgetting to provide a valid publicly accessible Privacy Policy link, which causes instant store rejection.
