App compliance checklist for mobile app launches
A practical app compliance checklist covering privacy policy, terms, disclosures, and app review preparation for modern mobile launches.
Overview
App compliance is the operational work required before publishing or updating an app. Teams need a repeatable process that covers legal pages, disclosures, and app review documentation.
This checklist helps product, legal, and engineering teams align on what must be ready before submission to reduce avoidable review delays.
Why this matters
Missing one required disclosure can slow launch timelines, create review back-and-forth, or force emergency policy updates after submission.
Step-by-step checklist
- Publish a public privacy policy URL that matches current app behavior.
- Prepare terms of service with product-specific usage language.
- Document data collection, storage, sharing, and retention flows.
- Prepare SDK inventory and vendor disclosure notes.
- Align app store metadata, screenshots, and forms with real features.
- Prepare reviewer-facing notes for sensitive permissions and account flows.
Common mistakes
- Using template policies that do not match current app functionality.
- Submitting disclosures that differ from in-app behavior.
- Forgetting to update compliance text after feature releases.
