# Developer account ownership

## Can you publish my app with your developer account?

The short answer will be, no. App Store guidelines prevent AppMySite from submitting your app using its own developer account. You'll need to create your own account for both Google Play and Apple App Store. Follow these steps to create your developer account on Apple & Google:

#### **1. Google Play Developer Account**

Head over to the official [Google Play Developer Console](https://play.google.com/console/signup) to register for your account. You'll need to provide basic information and agree to the terms. There's a one-time $25 USD registration fee to publish apps.

For a more detailed guide on creating a Google Play Developer account, you can visit the official [Google Play Help Center](< https://support.google.com/googleplay/android-developer/answer/6112435?hl=en>).

#### **2. Apple App Store Developer Account**

First, create an Apple ID on the [Apple Developer Program website](https://developer.apple.com/programs/). Then, log in to the program using your Apple ID and follow the steps to set up your account, including enabling two-factor authentication and entering your profile details.  There's an annual fee associated with maintaining an Apple Developer account.
