Can't find my own app :(

Random_guy :D

Hey everyone I finished my first app Word For Word and I can't find it anywhere on the appstore, does anyone have any suggestions on how I can get it found (even if I search the exact name it doesn't come up).

Thank you

If it is listed as for sale (green dot) in your iTunesconnect account then the app is there - there will also be a link to the app from the app details in itunesconnect.

It can take up to 24 hours before it shows up in the app store from the time it gets approved. I've had apps show up in just a few minutes, and my last app went almost 20 hours before it showed up.

Thank you for the help, but the app is available for the appstore if I go to the link from iTunes connect I find it but if I search it I find other apps with similar names but I never find mine (it's for iPhone) @lycettebros @slickzero

There's heaps of results, but shouldn't mine show up at the top if I search the exact name not ones that have a similar name?

Welcome to the new App Store.. They ruined it sometime in late July.

Great, just my luck, but is there anything I can change to make my app easier to find? Tags?

In your next update the only thing you can do is change your key words to ones you think would be better

Be sure you have set a sales day in the future - this will remove you app from the store until you reach that date - Even though its says ready for sale

Thanks for the help guys, I know the app is live because in the first 2 days it got 2 paid downloads (not much but it's something) but I can't find it when I search the name, should my tags include the games full name?
