The Developer Journey on Onside

Your lifecycle as an Onside developer generally follows these four key stages. Use our documentation to master each one.

Publish & Manage

The first step is getting your app onto the Onside Store. Our guides cover the entire process, from connecting your App Store account for seamless build syncing to managing updates and new versions after launch.

Monetize

Once your app is live, you can start earning. We offer flexible monetization models, including paid apps, in-app purchases, and subscriptions, all supported by our simple-to-integrate SDK.

Grow & Analyze

Drive your app's success by leveraging our platform's growth tools. Get featured, apply ASO tips tailored for Onside, and dive deep into your performance with our comprehensive analytics dashboard.

Administer & Collaborate

Manage the business side of your account. Set up your payout and financial details, and (soon) invite team members and manage their access with specific roles and permissions
