Apple launched the app » Accessory Developer Assistant among titles not listed on the App Store.
Apple affirms that this application is intended for accessory manufacturers who need to “test and verify” that their new products work as intended with Apple devices. The application was added to the App Store recently and is distributed under Apple’s developer account, but is currently unlisted. This means that you can only install it with a direct link and not via an App Store search or Apple account page.
“The Accessory Development Wizard is a companion application to the Accessory Manufacturer’s Guide. It’s a comprehensive set of tools designed to help accessory makers test and verify if their new products work as expected with Apple devices. »
Apple’s screenshots for the Accessory Developer Assistant app show testing options for things like camera hardware, NFC, battery management, case compatibility, and more. The app is available for iPhone and iPad.
