APPSINITYCreate a developer account
A developer account is created at Studio and verified by email. Nothing else — no payment method, no company record — is required before you can publish.
Open Appsinity StudioThe registration fields and their real limits
| Field | Rule enforced by the API | Note |
|---|---|---|
| Must be a valid address and must be verifiable | The OTP is sent to it; a wrong address locks you out of the account | |
| Display name | Truncated to 120 characters on profile updates | Used for the publisher name shown on listings |
| Password | Minimum 6 characters | Hashed with bcrypt cost 12; there is no complexity rule |
| Account type | Set to user for store sign-ups | Developer accounts are created through Studio |
| Marketing consent | Defaults to off | See Mail preferences |
Email verification
On sign-up the API generates a 6-digit numeric code in the range 100000–900000, hashes it, and emails it. The code expires after 10 minutes. Verification is a separate step from registration: the account exists before the code is entered.
- There is no rate-limited resend delay on the OTP endpoint, so asking for several codes in a row is possible — but only the newest hash is valid.
- If the code never arrives, check spam first, then the address itself. A typo in the email is not recoverable from inside the dashboard.
- Verification state is stored on the account and surfaced as
emailVerified.
What the account can do immediately
Payouts are the exception: they require the merchant and tax information described in Merchant account and Taxes, and the earnings dashboard stays locked until the app reaches 20,000 visits.
- Create projects and edit every section of them.
- Upload builds to storage and trigger signing.
- Publish, unpublish and delete its own apps.
- Read analytics for its own apps.
Individual versus organisation
An individual account publishes under the display name you chose. An organisation account exists so the publisher name is the company rather than a person, and is required when you want team seats under a shared owner. The two behave identically in the store; the difference is account metadata and who can delete the account.
See Organisation account and Developer profile.
Frequently asked questions
Can I have more than one developer account?
Nothing prevents it, but a second account for the same product breaks team roles and payout attribution. Use one account and add members instead.
How do I change the email on the account?
There is no self-service email change. Contact [email protected] from both the current and the new address so the request can be matched.
Why does the store keep asking me to verify my email?
Store sign-up requires the OTP step to complete before the finish panel appears. Enter the code, then choose a username and picture — see Username and avatar.
