Overview

Hi all, I've been observing what appears to be a timing mismatch in how Apple handles Korea trial-to-paid consent, and I wanted to see if other developers are seeing the same thing. Per Korean regulations effective Feb 14, 2025, Apple must obtain explicit user consent before converting a free trial to a paid subscription. Apple handles this via email, push notifications, and an in-app consent option accessible from Settings > Subscriptions. For a 7-day trial in the Republic of Korea storefront, I'm observing: Consent push notifications (Agree to continue your subscription without interruption) start arriving ~1 day after trial redemption, at roughly hourly frequency. However, when the user taps the push and navigates to Settings > Subscriptions, there is no consent option available. The only visible action is "Cancel Free Trial". The consent option only becomes available around day 4 of the trial (i.e., 3 days before renewal, matching Apple's documented messaging cadence [1]). For the first ~3 days, users receive hourly push notifications they cannot act on. The only way to stop them is to cancel the subscription entirely. This is happening across multiple apps in the Korean App Store, so it appears to be a platform-level behavior rather than an app-specific issue. Is anyone else observing this behavior? Any insight from Apple engineers or other developers would be greatly appreciated.

Dear App Review Team, Two of our apps have been stuck in the “Waiting for Review” status for an unusually long time: App ID: 6705133649 – waiting since march 12, 2026. Normally, reviews start within a few days, but in our case, it’s been almost two months without any updates or communication from Apple. We would like to know: Is there a specific reason for this extended hold? Is any action required from our side? When can we expect the review to proceed? Any clarification would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

My app is for a client that facilitates construction draws for construction companies. The app is stuck in a rejection loop for this reason: Guideline 3.2.1(viii) - Business - Other Business Model Issues - Acceptable Issue Description The app still provides loan services but does not meet all the requirements for apps providing these services. See below for additional information. These requirements give App Store users confidence that apps offering financial services are qualified to provide these services and will responsibly manage their data. Next Steps It would be appropriate to take the following steps to resolve this issue: The app facilitates loan or credit applications but you have not provided loan or business license documentation that demonstrates the app is authorized to provide these services. The client does not lend to consumers, nor individuals, and the client operates in states that do not require a lending license (including NMLS) to provide financing (such as construction draws) to construction companies. What documentation would app store review accept? I've tried written explanations in response to no avail.

Hi, This is my first time releasing an app to the store and it's been stuck in a "Waiting to review" state for about 5 days now. From what I gathered, most apps should be reviewed within a 48 hour period. I was just curious if there's something blocking it being sent to the In Review state. Thanks for any help you can provide.

On OSX, using a segmented picker style causes the following warning to be emitted (when a different selection is made) : "Publishing changes from within view updates is not allowed, this will cause undefined behavior." The warning is not emitted using the 'Preview Canvas' only when running the app. Changing the picker style to automatic also fixes it, but the segmented style is used extensively. Tested using XCode 26.4.1 on MacOS 26.3.1 --- view --- import SwiftUI internal import Combine enum Mode : String { case one, two, three } class MyObject : ObservableObject { @Published var mode : Mode = .one } struct ContentView: View { @StateObject var obj = MyObject() var body: some View { VStack { Picker("Mode",selection: $obj.mode) { Text("One").tag(Mode.one) Text("Two").tag(Mode.two) Text("Three").tag(Mode.three) } .pickerStyle(.segmented) } .padding() } } #Preview { ContentView() } --- app --- import SwiftUI @main struct SwiftUIBugApp: App { var body: some Scene { WindowGroup { ContentView() } } }

Hello Community I have a current app that is live in production that was last deployed under Account X. I had to change my account name to Account Y so I created a new Account and asked Apple to transfer my app. They have done and I can see my App on the new Account as well as transferring my app id (bundleID) and provisioning profiles. I am trying to push a new version of the app that was transffered but I keep on Running into this error. My Account X has expired but the new Account (Account Y) is valid and has no agreement exceptions on it. Couple of questions The Transfer Status is Active (not complete) is this correct? Is it possible there is still ties to the bundle id to the old Account X that I can no longer see I have a paid agreement present and sitting in New Status under the business page. I do not have any paid app functions on my app.

This issue has persisted for a week. Whenever I tap on "View Analytics" in Product Page Optimization, I always get the error: "The page you're looking for can't be found." Is anyone else encountering this issue? Thanks.

We have an iOS app using StoreKit 2 only (no RevenueCat). Products: pro1 (non-consumable) monthly (auto-renewable) annual (auto-renewable, 14-day introductory free trial) Current App Store Connect state: all products are submitted / attached to app version 1.0 subscriptions and IAP are now in Waiting for Review annual has an introductory offer configured in App Store Connect monthly and annual are in the same subscription group App behavior: We load products using Product.products(for:) with all three product IDs. In TestFlight, for multiple tester accounts, StoreKit still returns no usable products and the paywall remains in retry state. Earlier debug checks showed: annual.subscription?.introductoryOffer == nil isEligibleForIntroOffer == false Because introductoryOffer is nil, this does not appear to be only a tester-eligibility issue. It looks like the annual subscription product is not yet surfacing its intro offer/product data in TestFlight. Question: Is it expected that Product.products(for:) / Product.SubscriptionInfo.introductoryOffer may continue returning no subscription products or no introductory offer in TestFlight while the products are only in Waiting for Review? If so, is there a typical propagation delay, or is there anything else we should verify beyond: products attached to app version products in Waiting for Review Paid Apps agreement active intro offer configured on the annual subscription Any guidance would be appreciated.

As of this morning, I have been unable to reach the Mac App Store or Test Flight .

Hi everyone, I’m facing a persistent issue where App Store Connect invitations are marked as "Invalid" or "Expired" the moment the recipient clicks the link, even if it was sent just minutes prior. I have already tried the following troubleshooting steps without success: Removed and re-added the user multiple times. Sent invitations to different email addresses (different domains). Changed the assigned Roles (tried Developer and Support). Tried opening the invitation link in Incognito/Private mode and different browsers. Despite these attempts, the link remains invalid. Is there an ongoing server issue or a specific workaround for this? Thanks in advance for any help!

Hi, My app (Team ID: H4DH43B9X7), despite the requested expedited review, has been stuck in “Waiting for Review” since Thursday. This occurred after the app had already been approved multiple times and then received an incorrect rejection referring to “gender,” whereas the app actually requests biological sex, clearly described in the UI as required for metabolic calculations (BMR/TDEE), which are core to its functionality. Since this is causing us financial problems, I would greatly appreciate an update on its review status as soon as possible.

Hi devs and Apple support team, I’m waiting for updates on two Apple Developer Support cases: 102870790200 102870755282 Both are related to changing my Apple Developer / App Store Connect region and entity information from UAE to Kazakhstan. The requests were submitted last Thursday (5 days ago), and I still haven’t received any update. This is currently blocking my app release. Has anyone dealt with a similar issue, and is this waiting time normal for this type of request? Thank you very much.

Hi everyone, I'm currently experiencing an issue when trying to submit my app/build via App Store Connect. Details: App name: Daily Habit Tracker 2026 Bundle ID: com.DailyHabitTrackerPro.2026 Case ID: 102871415765 Issue: Whenever I try to submit the build (TestFlight / App Review), I get the following error: "There was an error processing your request. Please try again later." This issue has persisted for several days. What I've tried: Retried submission multiple times Waited and tried again later Checked app metadata and settings Contacted Apple Developer Support on April 17, 2026 (no response yet) Question: Has anyone encountered this issue recently? Is this a known backend issue on Apple’s side, or is there anything else I should check? Thanks in advance.

Updated to the latest developer beta and while on VPN I am no longer able to connect to any website with Safari. Firefox has no issues with the connection and the computer is definitely online. Firefox is able to load and use both internal pages and external sites, without any issue. Other apps on the computer are able to access the network. Safari fails immediately, with "There was a bad response from the server." If I enable developer mode and look at the network tab in Safari I don't see any requests going out for the pages, it just immediately loads ErrorPage.html and page-load-errors.css Disconnect from VPN and everything works again. Anyone else seeing this?

My enrolment is pending since 13 April and I haven't heard from Apple yet. I have requested for call backs and sent emails. How long does it generally take to get enrolled?

I’ve had a series of replies, comments, and even an entire thread removed with no explanation. I assume they were moderated, but I haven’t received any reasons. Is there a Forums support contact (email or chat) where I can ask for specifics on why they were removed? I’d like to understand what’s triggering moderation so I can avoid it in the future.

I am looking for a way to get customer ratings without reviews via the App Store Connect API. The customerReviews resource seems to only return ratings which are accompanied by a review. Is there maybe another way I am missing?
