This post is from the WWDC26 App Clips Q&A.
- Does the App Clip banner require the app to be live on the App Store, even for testing?
- Does Apple's CDN need time to cache/validate the AASA file, and is there a way to force re-validation?
- Are there known limitations with App Clip banners on non-production domains?
- Is there a diagnostic tool to verify our AASA file is being correctly read by iOS?
- App Clip banner shows up for Local Experiences added through Settings > Developer > App Clip Testing > Local Experiences.
- There's no force revalidation option for CDN during the App Store Connect submission process. If you want to change the associated domain or entitlement, submit a new build to App Store Connect.
- You should place the App Clip banner on an associated domain of your App Clip.
- Yes! Check out Settings > Developer > App Clip Testing > Diagnostics.
