+(See commmit "prepare for release")

+## Generate splashscreens

+
+## Create a new Provisioning Profile
+
+https://developer.apple.com/account/ios/profile/create
+
+* Distribution: "App Store"
+* App ID: NSIDE
+
+> Select the certificates you wish to include in this provisioning profile. To use this profile to install an app, the certificate the app was signed with must be included.
+
+* Certificate: Two options for "iOS Distribution" are available. Pick the most recently-dated one (I picked 'Nov 11 2019' rather than 'Apr 19 2019'), i.e. the one with the longest validity remaining on it.
+* Provide a `Profile Name`: "NSIDE iOS Distribution"
+* Download the created certificate and double-click it to install it to your keychain.

+<!-- (Ultimately didn't work)
+## Bundle
+
+```sh
+tns build ios --bundle --release --forDevice --teamId TVU9P2GAL9
+```
+
+## Publish
+
+```sh
+tns publish ios --ipa /Volumes/Transcend/NSIDE/platforms/ios/build/device/NSIDE.ipa
+``` -->
+
+## Prepare to submit from Xcode
+
+```sh
+tns prepare ios
+```
+
+Matched the "Code Signing Identity" in Build Settings with that of LinguaBrowse iOS.
+
+Archived and submitted with no problems (although this current Xcode has a bug of saying "Certificate: None" "Profile: Unknown" or vice versa ).
