Overview

Hello, My app Thalk (Apple ID: 6766675208) has been in "Waiting for Review" for 23 days, and I'd appreciate any guidance on what to check. Timeline: May 5, 2026: Initial submission, rejected May 6 (Guideline 2.1) May 7, 2026: Resubmitted with the issue addressed Today (May 30, 2026): Still "Waiting for Review," 23 days Submission details: Submission ID: a9f84eb4-8caa-4163-9cb5-4bfc717664e0 Developer Support Case ID: 102895750215 What I've already tried: Expedited review request (no response) Developer Support contact form (no response) Developer Support phone callback (completed, no further update) There are no outstanding messages from Apple in App Review, and App Review Information is complete. I just want to confirm the submission isn't stuck on something I need to address, and that it's progressing normally through the queue. Thank you.

When I click on the download link for reality converter, it just sends me here: https://developer.apple.com/augmented-reality/tools/ Is there something I am missing?

Is there any documentation or advice on printing from a Safari webapp (in JavaScript)? My app needs to print labels, and printing from Safari presents few options. For example, you can't turn off backgrounds or the URL/date/time footer. And it wants to print a full-size page, which ends up printing miles of label. (I've also tried printing from SwiftUI on a macOS app, and even that is just terrible to try to get right. Why is printing so hard?)

Hello, we’re seeing a rather serious regression on iOS 26.6: The issue appears to reproduce with a single named ManagedSettingsStore: import ManagedSettings let store = ManagedSettingsStore(named: ManagedSettingsStore.Name("specific")) store.webContent.blockedByFilter = .specific([ WebDomain(domain: "specific-domain-marker.example") ]) Expected behavior: Only the explicitly configured .specific(...) web domain filter should be reflected in the effective ManagedSettings / ManagedConfiguration state. Observed behavior: After configuring this single store with .specific(...), I’m seeing unexpected additional websites being blocked (mostly adult content) which should only happen when using the .auto(…) API. Documented under FB22890915 with Sample Project and Sysdiagnose.

Hello, My app, Puls: Corporate Wellness (Apple ID: 6762296263), appears to be stuck in the App Review process, and I would like to check whether there might be an issue with my submission. The app has been in the review queue for approximately 10 days, which seems unusually long compared to my previous submissions. I have also opened multiple support cases regarding this issue but have not received any response so far. I would greatly appreciate it if someone could check whether there is an issue with the submission or if any additional information is required from my side. This delay is impacting our planned release timeline, so any assistance or guidance would be greatly appreciated.

My non renewing subscriptions got rejected as I move from subscription to one time payment model. It says "In order to approve your new In-App Purchase business model, we have to verify the purchasability of the items being sold. Please upload a new binary and make sure that your new In-App Purchase products are available for purchase at the time of review." But the thing is I uploaded to new builds since then and both got approved and live but this error is still stuck. Submit for review is greyed out.

I recently applied for an Apple Developer Program company account, but my enrollment request was declined. The message I received only stated that the enrollment request had been declined. However, I did not receive any email or additional information explaining why the enrollment was rejected. My company is a legally registered business, and I completed the enrollment process using our company information. At this point, I'm unsure what part of the application caused the rejection or what I need to do to resolve it. Since receiving the rejection notice, I have contacted Apple Developer Support to ask for clarification, but I have not received a response. Has anyone experienced a similar situation? Were you able to find out the reason for the rejection or successfully reapply? Is there a way to request more detailed feedback from Apple regarding the decision? Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Hello, My app Mahjong Pair! - Tile Match (App ID: 6761831655) appears to be stuck in the App Review process, and I would like to check whether there may be an issue with this submission. The current version was originally planned for release on May 18, 2026. However, today is May 30, 2026, and the app is still in "Waiting for Review." Current status: Waiting for Review No messages in Resolution Center No requests for additional information We have also submitted multiple Support inquiries but have not received any response so far. This version is particularly important to our team, as it is tied to a planned release schedule and user acquisition activities that had already been prepared in advance. Given the unusually long delay, we are unsure whether the submission is proceeding normally or if there may be an issue requiring attention. If an Apple staff member could help check the status of this submission, it would be greatly appreciated. Thank you for your time and assistance.

I will be in Beijing on a tour overlapping with the last 3 days of WWDC. There are likely to be at least a couple of 1-1 labs I'd like to attend as well as group forum sessions. I suddenly had the horrified thought that the Great China Firewall may interfere with either of these. Does anyone know how likely this is? Does the Developer app work there? Will be in a reasonable hotel and have Vodafone roaming on my phone. thanks

Hi everyone, I'm looking for some guidance from developers who may have experienced something similar. I recently submitted a new app and initially received a rejection under Guideline 4.3(b) (Spam), with Apple stating that the app duplicated functionality found in an already saturated category. After the rejection, I made updates and submitted a new build along with detailed review notes explaining how the app differs from other apps in same category. The new submission has now been sitting in "Waiting for Review" for over a week, and there has been no communication from App Review. I'm trying to understand whether this is normal for apps that were previously rejected under 4.3(b), or if it may indicate that the app has been escalated for additional review. Any insights would be appreciated. Thanks!

Hi everyone, This is my first app submission to the App Store, and I'm curious about current review timelines. My app has been sitting in "Waiting for Review" and I'm trying to get a better idea of what others are experiencing right now. I know review times can vary depending on the app and workload, but I'd love to hear some recent experiences. For those who have submitted apps recently: • How long did it take to move from Waiting for Review to In Review? • How long did the full review process take? • Did you receive approval over the weekend, or mostly during weekdays? I'm not having any issues with the submission itself and haven't received any messages from Apple. Just trying to gauge what the current wait times look like. Thanks in advance! 😊📱🍎

Hello Apple Developer Community, I’m Samriddhi, a student at Hult International Business School studying Business Analytics and Design. I’m interested in exploring a potential collaboration with Apple around student life, creativity, productivity, design, and how Apple products support learning and creative work. I couldn’t find a direct official email for collaboration requests, so I’m posting here to ask if anyone can guide me toward the right Apple team, contact channel, or partnership process. I would be happy to share my audience details, content ideas, and previous work privately with the appropriate team. Thank you for your help.

I would like to implement a focus-based Menu-Bar command in my SwiftUI iPadOS app, or react to key command while certain elements are focused. Traditionally, this requires using @FocusedValue and focusable() and focused, however, it appears that setting a @FocusState on macOS will work, but setting a @FocusState on iPadOS will never work. How can this API work and support MenuBar commands and keyboard inputs? It kind of has an accessibility impact as well. Not all users are going to know, or want to turn on "full keyboard control" for basic interactions. Here's a small sample that doesn't appear to focus on iPadOS: struct FocusableTestView: View { @FocusState private var isRectFocused: Bool var body: some View { VStack { // This text field should focus the custom input when pressing return: TextField("Enter text", text: .constant("")) .textFieldStyle(.roundedBorder) .onSubmit { isRectFocused = true } .onKeyPress(.return) { isRectFocused = true return .handled } // This custom "input" should focus itself when tapped: Rectangle() .fill(isRectFocused ? Color.accentColor : Color.gray.opacity(0.3)) .frame(width: 100, height: 100) .overlay( Text(isRectFocused ? "Focused" : "Tap me") ) .focusable(true) .focused($isRectFocused) .onTapGesture { isRectFocused = true print("Focused rectangle") } // The focus should be able to be controlled externally: Button("Toggle Focus") { isRectFocused.toggle() } .buttonStyle(.bordered) } .frame(maxWidth: .infinity, maxHeight: .infinity, alignment: .center) } }

Hi, I am seeing "Waiting for Review" for the past 6 hours, and I do not know why it is taking so long, some of my versions get approved quickly some versions taking a long time.

I enrolled in the Developer Program and successfully completed my payment earlier today. However, I'm currently stuck in an endless "verification loop" and unable to access any Developer Features. It seems like a breakdown between the billing system and account status activation—the payment went through, but the system isn't updating my internal account status to "Verified." Instead, it just keeps redirecting me back to the registration/subscription page. Has anyone else run into this synchronization delay today? Are there any known workarounds to force the account status to refresh, or do I just need to wait for manual intervention from support?

Trying to enroll in the Apple Developer Program, and when I clicked Enroll, it gave me an empty blank page with a 500 error in the debug console. Failed to load resource: the server responded with a status of 500 (Internal Server Error) I tried the Developer Support and it gave me the same issue with a text ERROR: [object Object] on the screen. I called customer service from my phone to Apple and scheduled a call; however, the solution at the end is "Try refreshing again and again until the Developer Support page works." 😄 Any suggestions on my next step?

Hello I am looking at taking advantage of managing some features via DDM in an app. I noticed in the ServicesConfigurationFiles link (https://developer.apple.com/documentation/devicemanagement/servicesconfigurationfiles) it says You can create an executable that uses service configuration files by calling the mcf_service_path_for_service_type method in the libmanagedconfigurationfiles.dylib system library. You pass in an identifier for your service type and the method returns the file system path for the directory that contains the corresponding service configuration files. Use those files to override the standard or default configuration the executable would otherwise use. See libmanagedconfigurationfiles.h in the macOS SDK for more detail. I can't find any more references or information on mcf_service_path_for_service_type, libmanagedconfigurationfiles.dylib or libmanagedconfigurationfiles.h anywhere. Is there any information somewhere about this? Or how to use it? Or a POC small example?

I typically avoid NSMetadataQuery because I always found the API to be a bit peculiar but for this feature I'm working on I'm not sure it is worth the effort to implement this functionality in my own way. Plus it seems pretty fast. What I find strange is I set the operationQueue to get notifications off the main thread. But also when I set the queue the system yells at me anytime I make a change to NSMetadataQuery that alters the query. So I found this recommendation (requirement) in the documentation : NSMetadataQuery *query = // Initialize and set up a query [query.operationQueue addOperationWithBlock:^{ [query startQuery]; }]; I find this API design to be odd, but maybe I'm just weird. So there are a bunch of properties that can be changed while the query is already running (predicate etc.) and they implicitly stop/start the query and it seems all these calls need to be routed through the query.operationQueue like above? For example if I change the predicate while the query is already started it seems I have to: [query.operationQueue addOperationWithBlock:^{ query.predicate = predicate; }]; The query already knows its operationQueue. Why does the caller have to plumb these calls through the operation queue manually? -stopQuery does not result in an error/warning when called off the operationQueue but is doing so safe? Or do I have to do: [query.operationQueue addOperationWithBlock:^{ [query stopQuery]; }]; Really what I was expecting was to provide a queue for the notification callbacks. I wasn't expecting to manually have to confine the query to its own queue.

Hello. I have developed an application (My Pickleball) with Xcode for both iPhone and Apple Watch. I have successfully loaded said application onto my iPhone by connecting my iPhone to my MacBook Air with a cable; the application works as intended. The issue is with my Apple Watch. The application does load onto my Apple Watch, when when I select it, I get the following error: "Unable to Install 'My Pickleball - Watch' This app cannot be installed because its integrity could not be verified." Are there any thoughts as to how I could fix this? Thank you in advance. Regards, Ezequiel
