H&B iOS App – WooCommerce Coming Soon Bypass for Apple Review (Build 8)
17 hours ago by Samuel Firde
Hello Median Support Team,
We need technical assistance with our existing H&B Marketplace iOS app.
App details:
- App name: H&B
- Website: https://shophbm.com
- Platform: WordPress, WooCommerce, WC Vendors Pro
- App platform: Median.co
- iOS version: 1.0, Build 8
- Apple App Review status: Waiting for Review
Problem:
Our WooCommerce website is intentionally in Coming Soon mode until our public launch.
The H&B iOS app loads https://shophbm.com and displays the Coming Soon page instead of our marketplace products.
Apple reviewers need to access the actual marketplace inside the app while our website remains private.
Already tested:
- WooCommerce private sharing link works in Safari.
- Reviewer login was tested inside the H&B iOS app, but Coming Soon still appears.
- Median Link Handling is configured with “All pages on my domain” set to Internal.
- The app’s Website URL is correctly set to https://shophbm.com.
- We have already submitted our app demonstration video and reviewer information to Apple.
Our questions:
- Can we initialize the WooCommerce private sharing session inside the existing Median iOS WebView?
- Is there a supported solution that does not require rebuilding Build 8 or changing the production Website URL?
- Can we grant access only to Apple reviewers without exposing the marketplace publicly?
- If a new build is required, what is the safest supported approach?
Please provide specific instructions for our current setup. We want to avoid repeating the troubleshooting steps already completed.
Thank you,
H&B Marketplace LLC
