How to submit a watch only app?

In WWDC standalone watch app talk, Apple mentioned that iPhone app is now optional.


How do you submit a standalone watch app without the iPhone app?


Have been asking in WatchKit forum and no answer for months. Thanks!

I am having the same question.

It seems that we have to add it as an iOS app in App Store Connect but I am wondering which Bundle Identifier to use as we have three ids (3 targets):

Code Block
- com.myCompany.myApp
- com.myCompany.myApp.watchkitapp
- com.myCompany.myApp.watchkitapp.watchkitextension

@LiveQuartz Did you ever manage to answer this one?

I'm assuming we use the ".watchkitapp" version when it is a stand alone watch app - and could possibly then switch to the "com.myCompany.myApp" version in future if we wanted to add a parent iOS app?

Any updates here? I can't seem to make "App Store Connect" as distribution mechanism available, so I can't upload the standalone app.
