General Tips for Entering this Challenge

  • If you haven't already done so, then register on Windows Store now. If appropriate, personal registrations are easier with less verification needed than a company registration.
  • Keep initial feature set simple and quality high, especially if this is your first app; you can always add additional features in future updates.
  • Read the Windows App Store Guide. And read the "Avoiding common certification failures"
  • Ensure you run the "Windows App Certification Kit" tool before submitting your app to the Store. 5. Allow time for you app to go through the App certification process. This may take up to 5 business days.
