I haven't renewed my apple dev program membership in years. Will that impact the apps I had distributed after signing/notarizing with a certificate that was valid back then? The apps were distributed outside App Store (direct dmg/pkg download). Also does membership expiration affect the apps on app store that were signed using the certificate that was valid back then? I see conflicting suggestions. In one question on this forum, it was mentioned that the apps that were signed earlier will continue working fine including new people who install them. But then I see following on some apple dev documentation If your Apple Developer Program membership expires, your apps will no longer be available for download and you won’t be able to submit new apps or updates. You’ll lose access to prerelease software, Certificates, Identifiers & Profiles, and TSIs. However, your apps will still function for users who have already installed or downloaded them, and you will still have access to App Store Connect and free development resources. This doesn't look practical to me. If I want people to install my app, do I have to renew membership each year and sign with the new certificate?

Hi team, I can see that my apple developer membership renewal date was in 2021. But now, I don't see any option to renew it. How do I renew?

I'll keep it short My app got rejected Reason was app crash, on checking error code it looks like code signing issue I had done the best by following the code signing documentation, testing it locally and using transporter to verify the package Now I'm not sure if this is a bug in OS or code signing or something is missing in the documentation. I have raised request to support. They shared documentation link with me again. I raised code-level support, no response. Should I give up to publish on macOS store or there is any hope?
