Buy iOS apps with clearer diligence signals
AppsVerified helps buyers evaluate App Store businesses with structured listing details, proof artifacts, confidentiality controls, and transfer-focused review prompts. The goal is a more careful acquisition process, not a shortcut around buyer diligence.
Inspect the business before you commit.
iOS app acquisitions depend on current revenue, App Store transfer rules, code handoff, account access, and seller cooperation. Treat every proof item as an input to verify, not as a guarantee of future performance.
What to evaluate in an iOS app acquisition
Use each listing as the starting point for practical review across revenue, Apple account transfer requirements, code quality, and ownership.
Revenue quality
Compare seller-provided App Store, subscription, ad network, or payment proof against current dashboards and understand platform fees, refunds, and seasonality.
App Store transfer readiness
Confirm whether the app, bundle ID, in-app purchases, subscriptions, users, associated domains, and required team roles can transfer under Apple's current rules.
Technical handoff
Review source access, build steps, certificates, provisioning profiles, third-party SDKs, backend services, release process, and known maintenance work.
Ownership and risk
Check IP ownership, contractor assignments, privacy commitments, customer data handling, platform policy history, and any unresolved disputes or compliance concerns.
Buyer diligence checklist
- Ask for current App Store Connect revenue and subscription evidence where relevant.
- Review analytics, retention, acquisition channels, ratings, reviews, and support volume.
- Confirm what transfers through Apple and what requires seller cooperation after close.
- Inspect source code, backend dependencies, push notification setup, and release access.
- Document close conditions for store transfer, source handoff, domains, and operating access.
