How best to answer some of the submission questions

I have a fully developed app for IOS and Android. The submission form gives me only one option for the platform. How should I do this?

Also, since this is a completed free app do I need to sent testflight or apk's or code? I am the owner and app manager but not the developer so I am not fully tech savvy. Please help clarify for me as per what I need to fill out on the form. Thanks

    We'll be providing test UUID's in January so that you can send us your test app, sorry for the delays on that. More importantly is that you submit a video walk-through of what your app does, how it will address the users need, and anything you can share as far as business/market aspects. Treat it as a 5 minute pitch where you'd present to judges why this app is so awesome.

    I'm not sure why ChallengePost only allows one platform or the other when submitting. No worries - we'll pay attention to what actual platforms your submissions will support. Just mention it in the description.

    But my app is finished and not in test mode. Can I just send a URL to install it or do I need to wait for the test UUIDs? I can and will create a great video walk through but don't want to be disqualified if all of the fields in the form are not filled out. Thanks

    Oh, I see. Yes, if you have a URL for install, that is all the matters. Test UUID's are only needed if the app is not accessible some other way. If we see something missing that we need, we'll reach out to you for it before disqualifying for technicalities. I hope that helps!

    Perfect. This answers my question. I have another please. I noticed when signing up for the challenge that it included mobile apps and also web apps. My website is a full blown living history library snd FS affiliate, with an abundance of story recording and archiving features. We use the app as one of the field tools to collect stories but the site itself is self-contained.

    Is it possible to submit a web application to the same challenge from the same developer? If so, would I need to create a whole new account? Thanks a lot.
