My app is already in App Store. Now my distribution certificate is expired. I know my app in App Store will continue running, but my questions are:
-
If now I have a bug fix in my app, does it mean I am not able to submit the updated app to App Store since my distribution certificate expired?
-
If I renew the distribution certificate, my understanding is that it is identical as revoke the distribution certificate and create a new distribution certificate, am I right?
-
If the answer to my 2nd question is "Yes", does it mean in future when I see my distribution certificate is expiring soon, I just revoke it and create a new one for existing app in App Store, am I right?
