Good to know
This guide is written for non-technical people — no Mac and no technical skills needed. You do the steps Apple ties to you as the account owner plus a few short, guided setup steps (with a screenshot for every click), then design your app in the wizard. From there, our team handles the technical build and App Store submission for you.
⚠️ Requires the Smart Community Builder plugin
Your app runs on the Smart Community Builder plugin for WordPress — smartcommunitybuilder.com. Without this plugin, your app won’t work. We install and connect it for you once you share your WordPress login in the final step.

The one rule: never share your Apple Account password with anyone — not even us. Apple forbids it and you’d risk losing your account. The “Invite the Smart Creators team” step shows you the safe, official way to give our team access.
