Merge two 2 applications into 1

Hi, we are having this case:

  • We have 2 different applications from 2 different accounts: App1 and App2
  • The end goal is merging 2 apps into 1 app only, say merge App2 into App2
  • We want to create a smooth experiences for users: for App2's user it will be an update and from that update App2 will update to App1 with App1's ID
  • Assume that all others migration problems are solved

Is this doable? And if yes, what is our next step?

Thanks in advance

You mean into App1 ?

AFAIK, it cannot be a simple update for users of App2 to upgrade with App1, because each app has its own appID. So AppStore cannot make the link between the 2.

The question was asked on the forum: https://developer.apple.com/forums/thread/98764 Answer was the same: The store can't migrate users between appA and appB.

I suppose they are paying apps ?
