If you have any trouble submitting your podcast, contact Apple's support team.

Getting Started

Initiating Your Podcast Setup

  • Step 3: Upon successful login, click the "+" button located in the top-left corner of the dashboard and select "New Show”

  • Step 4: Choose "Add a show with an RSS feed" from the options provided.

Configuring Your Podcast Details

  • Step 5: Enter your podcast's RSS feed URL. Click Add

  • Step 6: Verify ownership of your podcast. Apple Podcasts Connect will send a verification code to the email address associated with your podcast's RSS feed. Enter this code to proceed.

*(Please note: Ensure your email is accessible during this setup to promptly verify ownership.)*

  • Step 7: Review your show details on the Show Information page to ensure everything looks correct.

    • Set the Content Rights and confirm that your show has rights to any third-party content it may contain.

    • Provide contact information for the show, so we can reach someone if there’s an issue.

    • Select Frequency as Weekly

  • Step 8: On the left, choose Availability

    • Countries or Regions: Choose where you want your show to be available. You can edit availability anytime.

    • Show Release: Choose to publish your show right away.

  • Step 9: Click Save, wait for Apple to publish your show. This may take 15 mins or so, do not close the window (tab), then refresh and then hit the button “Publish”.

  • Step 10: Email me the Apple ID. You should see a box under “Show Information page” that says Apple Show ID, if you could copy that ID and send it to me.
