When do changes take effect?

Updates to a live app fall into two groups.

Instant — save in the dashboard. App name and description on the login screen, login page background image, home page icon, button and surface colors, and tab configuration. Clients need to close and reopen the app to see them.

Needs a new app build. Arketa submits a new iOS build to the App Store for Apple's review and publishes a new Android build — allow 2–4 weeks. Clients see the change after they update the app on their device.

  • The app icon — upload the new icon under App Icon on the Settings tab of Sales Channels → Mobile App, then contact Arketa support via live chat. Make sure it's centered and fills the frame.
  • App Store listing text — name, subtitle, keywords, and description
  • App Store screenshots
  • The launch screen color or logo
