4. Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

1. Should I publish to Apple, Google, and the Web app?

There's no need. All the changes will automatically publish to your Web app. Publishing is not immediately required for iOS and Android, on the other hand. 

Why not launch your app instantly through your very own PWA?  Here's how: How do I launch an app instantly?

 

2. I've uploaded content into my app and am ready to send it for review. Can I publish to Apple and Google now?

Before you publish your App to Google and Apple, please read this article first to avoid any delays in approval: What do I need to do before I submit my app?

 

3. I've tried to preview a course I created, but it's not showing, and I can't view it on my Web App.

PassionProducts updates will automatically reflect on your web app, but before you can preview a course, you must add the course to a pricing plan to activate it. Check this article: How do I preview the content inside my PassionProduct?

 

4. Why does it still say YOUR LOGO on my Web App?

Try to re-upload your logo, then refresh your page. This should fix the issue, and your logo should now be reflected on your live web app.

 

5. Can I remove passion.io from my Web App URL? 

Since your Web App is created within a subdomain, it will always be appname.passion.io. However, you can use Domain Forwarding if you already have your own domain (e.g., yourbrand.com). Check with your domain provider to learn how to set up Domain Forwarding.
