When to use this template
Use this when a campaign depends on a custom product page that is entering or undergoing Apple review. Plan the state handoff and the fallback instead of promising an approval date.
Choose another approach when: You need a general launch calendar, want to bypass App Review, or plan to call a submitted page approved before checking its actual public URL.
Gather these inputs
- Current app approval state and the exact custom page submission record.
- Final metadata versions, deep-link destination and campaign handoff dependencies.
- An actually available fallback and an owner authorized to decide campaign timing.

Worked example
Illustrative example, not a Crany customer result. Replace every example detail with facts you can verify.
Fictional example: a founder's iPhone app is already approved, but a campaign-specific page is in review. A teammate discovers that the submitted preview depicts an obsolete button. The freeze plan identifies the exact affected version and the campaign links that depend on it. An authorized owner decides whether to withdraw for correction and resubmission; the worksheet does not claim that withdrawal guarantees faster approval. Until the corrected page is approved and publicly checked, the campaign either uses a verified general page with a matching truthful message or waits. The team does not send paid traffic to an unverified custom URL simply because a launch calendar contains a date.
How to use it
- Identify the real app approval state and choose the appropriate submission dependency.
- Freeze the referenced asset version and record changes requiring an owner decision.
- Verify the approved public page and route before releasing dependent campaign materials.
Check before using it
- The submission state is observed rather than inferred from a teammate’s handoff.
- No guaranteed review time or automatic approval is promised.
- The fallback is actually available and supports the message used with it.
What to measure
Review launch handoffs delayed or corrected by an actual review dependency, and record post-approval mismatches. This plan controls coordination risk; it does not change Apple permissions, submit a page or guarantee acceptance.
Research and sources
Apple documents first-version dependencies, custom-page review and the asset edit restrictions during review. This original coordination plan adds a version handoff and fallback decision without creating or changing an App Store submission.
- Apple: Submit a custom product page — checked 2026-10-24. Custom-page and deep-link review; first-version submission dependency and edit restrictions while under review. No guaranteed approval duration.
