AboutKit

Feature Graphic Platform

AboutKit provides developers for Apple platforms with the ability to add an About screen to their apps. This built using SwiftUI so can be displayed natively from a SwiftUI app or using a UIHostingController in a UIKit app.

This has been localised into multiple languages and the buttons will automatically adapt to your appʼs accent color.

For users who previously used AboutKit for showing the features list, please use FeaturesKit.

    otherApps: otherApps, 
    showShareApp: .always, 
    showWriteReview: .always
)

let app = AKMyApp(
    id: "123456789",

    developer: developer, 
    email: "exampleapp@example.com",
