Your next App Store update, under control. Launch brings App Store metadata into a clear workspace for independent developers. Review update readiness, manage localized descriptions and release notes, and prepare screenshots and preview assets. Connect your own App Store Connect account with an Apple API key, or explore clearly labelled example data first. Your key stays on your device. Keep the small details of a global release organized, from your first draft to your next update. Launch Pro adds repeated release workflows, localization, metadata export and media preparation. Choose an auto-renewing yearly subscription or a one-time lifetime purchase. Local prices are shown before purchase. Previous paid-app customers retain Pro access with a verified original purchase.

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Symbol Catalog at none against Launch's 2. Launch's advantage is device support (3 vs 1). On price, update cadence, ads and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
