Helm for App Store Connect vs Xtend

Helm is a native App Store Connect companion built for developers who ship often. Manage versions, metadata, screenshots, TestFlight, subscriptions, reviews, in-app events, and editorial nominations from one fast interface so everyday listing work stays out of your way. ■ LISTINGS THAT KEEP UP WITH YOUR RELEASES Edit app updates across platforms, tune promotional text and release notes, manage phased releases, and submit for App Review when everything checks out. Open App Store Connect in the browser anytime you still need it. ■ METADATA, LOCALIZATION, AND AI Improve descriptions, explore keywords, and translate listing fields and in-app event copy across locales with tools meant for real submissions, not generic prompts. ■ APP STORE OPTIMIZATION Catch duplicate keywords, review practical guidance, and preview how your listing appears in search results so it reads cleanly before you submit. ■ SCREENSHOTS AND PREVIEWS Reorder and replace assets while Helm handles sizing, alpha cleanup, visionOS simulator workflows, and Magic Upload so files land in the right locale and order. ■ APP INFORMATION AND REVIEW CONTACTS Maintain app-level details and App Review Information, with shortcuts to reuse trusted contact data when Apple needs to reach you. ■ TESTFLIGHT Draft beta release notes, invite internal and external testers and groups, pull contacts when you want speed, submit builds for beta review, and stay on top of feedback. ■ CUSTOMER REVIEWS Filter and sort reviews, reply with templates, translate replies when it helps, export what you need, and copy your App Store review link quickly. ■ IN-APP PURCHASES AND SUBSCRIPTIONS Create and organize products, manage subscription groups and pricing, and handle promotional pricing, offer codes, and win-back offers where available. ■ IN-APP EVENTS Create and duplicate events, localize event copy, and submit them as part of your release workflow. ■ APP STORE NOMINATIONS Track drafts, upcoming, and past editorial nominations so that promoting your app to the App Store team stays organized. ■ ACCESSIBILITY Fill and monitor App Store accessibility nutrition labels so your product page reflects the experience you ship. ■ HELM PASSPORT AND WIDGET Collect developer contacts like stamps, share yours with a QR code or widget, and invite people into TestFlight builds or groups. An App Clip gets new contacts started in seconds when they are not on Helm yet. ■ ACCOUNT FLEXIBILITY Sign in with App Store Connect API keys, keep multiple Helm setups for separate developer accounts, and use Helm setup files to onboard or move configuration between devices. ■ STAY IN THE LOOP Optional notifications for builds, version changes, and TestFlight feedback so important updates do not get lost.

Xtend puts your development workspace in your pocket. A free companion app runs on your Mac. Your iPhone or iPad connects to it directly — encrypted, peer to peer — over any network. Your projects, your tools, your machine. You just aren't sitting at it. YOUR PROJECTS, ORGANIZED Every project on your machine becomes a workspace, with its own sessions, its own branch and its own history. Pick up a conversation from this morning, start a new one, jump between them. Everything survives closing the app. CHAT WITH YOUR CODING AGENT Talk to the agent already installed on your machine — Claude Code or Codex — about your real projects. Streaming replies, tool calls, syntax-highlighted diffs. Slash commands and @-file mentions work exactly as they do in your terminal, because it is your terminal. APPROVE WHAT IT RUNS, FROM YOUR POCKET When the agent wants to run a command or edit a file, the request appears on your phone. Approve, always allow, or deny. Xtend never decides for you — it carries the question and brings back your answer. A REAL TERMINAL Not a toy. Full xterm emulation with ANSI colour, pinch-to-zoom, text selection, eleven themes, and a font panel that does not dismiss the keyboard. Attach files from your photo library, camera or Files app. BUILD AND RUN Start an Xcode build, follow the log as it streams, then install straight to your iPhone — wherever you are, with no cable and no need to be on the same network. Runtime logs from the running app, searchable and filtered by level, like the Xcode console. And when you need to see it move, mirror your iOS Simulator live and touch it — taps go straight through. NO SAME-NETWORK REQUIREMENT Your phone and your desk find each other wherever they are. Cellular in one place, Wi-Fi in another — the connection is direct and end-to-end encrypted either way. PUSH WHEN IT MATTERS (Premium) The agent needs a decision, a long build finishes — your phone tells you, and you can answer without opening the app. Free accounts see the same alerts inside the app. WHAT YOU NEED • A Mac running the free Xtend Host companion (download at getxtend.com) • Sign in with Apple, on both • One Mac per Apple ID FREE AND PREMIUM Chat, terminal, projects and builds are unlimited and always free — no trial, no counter, no catch. Simulator mirroring and installs to your iPhone come with a generous daily allowance. An in-app purchase lifts that allowance and adds push notifications, for people who need more.
