Done-for-you publishing · Bolt.new
Publish your Bolt app to the App Store & Google Play — for you.
Bolt's Expo integration means your prototype can become a real native app — but between 'runs in preview' and 'live on the App Store' sit developer accounts, EAS builds, provisioning, store listings, and two different review processes. We handle that entire second half.

Can Bolt.new publish to the stores by itself?
Not by itself. Bolt (via Expo) can generate a native project, but store publishing requires your own Apple and Google developer accounts, signed production builds, complete listings, and passing both stores' reviews.
Where Bolt.new founders get stuck
Prototype ≠ production build
Bolt previews run in Expo Go. Store submission needs standalone signed builds with proper bundle IDs, icons, and versioning.
EAS and signing setup
Credentials, provisioning profiles, and keystores trip up even experienced developers the first time.
Two stores, two rulebooks
Apple's Human Interface Guidelines and Google's policy center disagree on plenty. Each rejection costs days.
Listing assets from scratch
Store screenshots, feature graphics, privacy labels, and descriptions — none of which Bolt generates.
The DIY route (if you want it)
No gatekeeping — this is genuinely what it takes to publish a Bolt app yourself.
- 01
Export to Expo
Move your Bolt project to a standalone Expo app with production configuration.
- 02
Create developer accounts
Apple ($99/yr) and Google Play ($25), with identity verification on both.
- 03
Run EAS builds
Configure eas.json, generate credentials, and produce signed IPA and AAB binaries.
- 04
List, test, submit
Complete both listings, run TestFlight and Play closed testing, submit, and respond to reviewer feedback.
Or hand it to us and be live this week

- We own the review process — rejections included — until you're live
Bolt.new publishing FAQs
My Bolt app is web-only. Can it still go to the stores?
Yes — web-first Bolt projects can be wrapped natively (like Lovable apps) instead of using the Expo path. We choose the route that passes review fastest for your app.
What do you need from me to start?
Your Bolt project link (or exported code), your app name and description, and about 15 minutes for account setup. We handle the rest.
How long until my app is live?
We typically submit within 48 hours. Apple usually reviews in 1–3 days. New Google Play personal accounts add a mandatory 14-day closed test, which we run for you.
