Are apple certificates needed after publishing the app?

Question

I'm using React-Native (Expo) to build my Apps. After launching an app, I end up with many certificates (Push Notifications, Distribution, Development, etc) on my developer portal.

Are these certificates needed on my developer portal after publishing the app or can I revoke/delete them?

Answer 1

I think no problem if you do that.

• Apple's document

• If I revoke an existing distribution certificate, will it mess up anything with existing apps?

• What happens when a distribution certificate expires or revoked?
