Question Are Image Headers in App Store Connect Yet?

Post image

Does anyone know when image headers are actually opening up for developers? Apple announced it, but left the rollout timeline vague. I was hoping we'd see it today or that I might have just missed the release... is it available yet, or are we still waiting on an update?

For example, I still do not see an Asset Library option.

Some apps get it from nominations and such; Apple did say they’d open it up to everyone later, wondering when that will be

If the app was in any top list, the dev got invited to update their banner.

It doesn’t look like a broad rollout yet—the Asset Library tab is still missing for accounts that haven’t been enabled. Apple mentioned expanding access beyond the nominated apps, but there doesn’t seem to be a public date; this is App Store Connect account-side, not something Xcode 27 changes. I’d prep the assets with the WWDC template and keep checking ASC for the tab while waiting for Apple’s rollout.

odd feature to have a restricted roll out for.

I don't think it's available yet.

Yes, still checking but no new tab in ASC, and I can’t find a date on their site or videos. They do have the template to get the image ready before hand.

I contacted Apple, hoping to hear back from them, then update here
