iTunes Connect will be closed for the holidays

iTunes Connect, the interface that allows developers to manage their app listings and schedule releases will be down during the holidays. According to an announcement from Apple, any apps that are scheduled to go live during the holiday period (December 23-28) won’t go live until iTunes Connect resumes business on December 29. For 5 days in December, don’t expect any new apps to pop up on the iTunes store. Though you can be sure a lot of apps will go live just before the 23rd- developers are sure to take advantage of the festive mood that shoppers will be in during the holidays. Expect a lot of Christmas themed apps to arrive at the App Store next month. Are you feeling the holiday spirit yet?
