# Submitting your app

After you’ve tested your app and ensured that it's production-ready, you can submit it for approval.

{% hint style="warning" %}
Make sure you thoroughly [test your app](/build-an-app/getting-your-app-approved/testing-your-app.md) before submitting it. If we discover a bug that prevents us from being able to review the functionality of your app, then it will be rejected.
{% endhint %}

Before you submit your app, check the following things:

* Make sure that the app meets our [requirements](/build-an-app/getting-your-app-approved/app-requirements.md). This helps to speed up your app’s review.
* Make sure that your app is appropriately documented, keeping in mind that many of your users might not be digitally literate. Try to create a guide that caters to all levels of experience. If your app requires the setup of an external service to function, then include this within your documentation.
