Hey @muhammad thanks for using Expo!

I might have misunderstood your question, but you can build an Expo application without an Apple Developer Program membership. But in order to launch your Expo Application to the Apple App Store, you need to have one.

I hope this clears up any confusion you may have? Please let me know if that didn’t answer your question. Happy building :slight_smile:

Hi @muhammad, unfortunately here is the official stance:

An Apple Developer account is needed to build an iOS standalone app, but a Google Play Developer account is not needed to build the Android standalone app. If you’d like to submit to either app store, you will need a developer account on that store.

You can learn more here: https://docs.expo.io/versions/latest/guides/building-standalone-apps.html
