I want to develop a music-related app for myself to use. A few internet friends may want to try it, and I'm happy to share it for free. Mostly, we don't know each others' actual identities because it's irrelevant. I'm not a professional developer, and I do want to maintain my privacy. I still haven't purchased a developer license from Apple, but if I do, and my app gets listed in the app store someday, will users be able to see my name?
Apple has my identity info because there are good reasons for that, but it looks like at least the name on the account gets published with the app. Is it possible to have the app listed with a fictitious name even though I'm not a business? I mean, if a user ever has a serious issue with me, which is rather unlikely, Apple has all the info necessary to hold me accountable. So I'd rather not publish my name to the world just to share my silly little app with a few people.
