If your website has an account system, you need to provide a test account to the app reviewers - even if logging in is optional. The test account should be a regular user account of your website/app, it doesn't need to have special admin permissions.

Please double-check that the test account you provided works. If the app reviewers can't log in with it, your app will be rejected.

Hi, I'm Jan! I created webtoapp.design in 2019 while studying computer science in university. A lot has changed since then - not only have I graduated, but it's also no longer just me running webtoapp.design. We've grown to a global, fully remote team and have gathered lots of experience around app development and app publishing. We've created and published hundreds of apps in the app stores, where they've been downloaded millions of times.
