Bogus 4.3.0 Rejections - Need Help!
Since April 1, 2022, the App Review Team and App Review Board have been consistently rejecting my app, the reason being, Guideline 4.3 - Design We continue to find that your app provides the same feature set as other apps submitted to the App Store; it simply varies in content or language, which is considered a form of spam. This is 100% false because my app has unique features not found on other apps on the App Store. The strange part is the supposedly similar apps don't even offer the features that my app offers yet those apps are able to get their app submissions approved. I should also mention those apps were published after mine. I have provided screenshots, video demos, source code, spoken to App Review team and they are still rejecting the app because of 4.3.0. It appears they are overlooking the information I've been providing and responding with generic responses. Should I file a complaint with the BBB? It's evident that selective bias and unfair treatment is happening with the App Review Te

Reply to App Rejected Due to 4.3.0 Spam
Spam is not only a question of code, it may be also that is app looks too close to an existing app, so the experience is not unique or category is already too crowded. 4.3 Spam Don’t create multiple Bundle IDs of the same app. If your app has different versions for specific locations, sports teams, universities, etc., consider submitting a single app and provide the variations using in-app purchase. Also avoid piling on to a category that is already saturated; the App Store has enough fart, burp, flashlight, fortune telling, dating, drinking games, and Kama Sutra apps, etc. already. We will reject these apps unless they provide a unique, high-quality experience. Spamming the store may lead to your removal from the Apple Developer Program. Have you searched for other similar games on the App Store ?

Reply to 4.3 Design Spam (Suggestion for Apple)
Here we go again! A bigger company copied some of my ideas from my android app since apple is still rejecting. The redesinged it a little bit to fit 4.3 Design: Spam and got approved a couple of weeks ago. Bad enough.. so I redesinged my App the same way and resubmitted it. And guess what.. Still rejected because of 4.3 Design: Spam. THIS IS UNFAIR TREATMENT! THIS IS FU*CKING NOT OKAY! I am so mad right now. I have a meeting with a lawyer tomorrow. You should do the same!

Reply to Can SAAS-developed template apps pass the review and be published?
Appstore Guideline 4.3 may forbid you to do so. And here are some advices on how to handle it. 4.3 Spam Don’t create multiple Bundle IDs of the same app. If your app has different versions for specific locations, sports teams, universities, etc., consider submitting a single app and provide the variations using in-app purchase. https://developer.apple.com/app-store/review/guidelines/

Guideline 4.3 - Design. We noticed that your app provides the same feature set as other apps submitted to the App Store; it simply varies in content or language, which is considered a form of spam.
Hello everyone, First of all I want to mention that I'm new to Apple Developer Forums and this is my first attempt to publish an app in AppStore. I registered as Apple Developer Program as Individual. I made an app for small company. The app works like an online shop where company's customers can place orders for company's goods. So I submitted the app and it was rejected for spam issues. I tried to get some information what I can about it. They suggested me to ask on the forum about the membership. Should I try to use Apple Developer Program as an Organization? Or maybe (I find my app unique because it differs from competitive market apps) should I resubmit my app? Can I do it without making any changes in version? I also tried to appeal from their decision but I they respnsed that the original rejection feedback was valid. Additionally I want to add that this is my first iOS app ever, the only one that was submitted on my account. Thank you all for help!

Reply to My App Rejected 4.3 Design: Spam
We have been developing a new app for scanning documents and photos for six months. This app has many unique features that other apps don't have. The app automatically detects holes on the documents that have been punched with a hole punch and removes them from the document. The corners of the detected document are automatically moved inwards to get clean edges, the user can set how many pixels to indented. This app recognises the text very accurately and inserts it into the PDF document behind the image at the exact position and text size as the text on the image. The PDF generated by the app can be searched for text and the text can be marked and copied. Another important feature that no other app in the App Store offers is the function that all four corners of the document are shown enlarged in four circles and are visible at the same time. The user can see immediately if the corners have been recognized satisfactorily or if they should be corrected. The user can move the corners either on the document or

Reply to My App Rejected 4.3 Design: Spam
At WWDC 2023 I updated my app and will get: Guideline 4.3 - Design «We noticed that your app provides the same feature set as other apps submitted to the App Store; it simply varies in content or language, which is considered a form of spam». I asked to write what exactly I copied and how do I understand it in general? This is my application, developed from scratch. There are figma files with the design, roadmap, issue's, etc. I paid $100, spent a three months and got rejected 👍 Сomplete demotivation. With this logic, if there is a «ToDo» application, then no other developers can create a similar one with their own functionality? P.S. My application works with Stable Diffusion, text-to-image/image-to-image for macOS.

Reply to is there any change for ipv6 on macOS13 and iOS 16?
Hi meaton, Thanks for your reply. IANA has defined a well-known range, 192.0.0.0/29, in [RFC6333], which is dedicated for DS-Lite. Android implement CLAT since 4.3 version, i will got a 192.0.0.x ip address as expected when i connect to the NAT64 WIFI . iOS 15 /macOS 12 will not got a 192.0.0.x IP assigned on the same NAT64 WIFI. The same issue was found on https://www.reddit.com/r/ipv6/comments/10dylht/ipv6_ipad/. so, I think that 192.0.0.x is not vend back by the AP, but assigned by iOS 16/macOS 13. I doubt the latest macOS/IOS implement CLAT. Can you confirm it with the apple engineer? ========================= https://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc7335.html https://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc6333 https://developer.apple.com/library/archive/documentation/NetworkingInternetWeb/Conceptual/NetworkingOverview/UnderstandingandPreparingfortheIPv6Transition/UnderstandingandPreparingfortheIPv6Transition.html#//apple_ref/doc/uid/TP40010220-CH213-SW1 https://www.reddit.com/r/ipv6/comments/10dylht/ipv6_ipad/

The AppStore still comes across as "Rigged"
As a developer the app store just feels kind of rigged, and you will never get a reasoned reply to your concerns. Here are two examples which aren't revealed by the new transparency report. I had 10 solitaire variants. My competitor had 10 variants. New rule 4.3 brought in which is fair enough, except that afterwards Apple removed my solitaire variants but allowed my competitor to keep all of theirs. Search for Chess on the app store (note I also have a chess app). Why does an old app with a rating of 3 stars and just 18 ratings come above Magnus Carlsen's app with a 5 star rating? He is the number one chess player in the World and his app is superb. It is exasperating and you will only get a Thank you for your concerns, we have passed them to the relevant department kind of reply. You never hear from them again on the subject. There are 1000s more examples ... The only way Magnus can rectify this is, I poresume, by buying Apple Search Ads.

Our app got rejected the second time because of 4.3 design spam reason. Need help
Hi, we submitted our app for review after 1 year of development, and 4 months waiting to finally make payment and enable developer account. After review, app was rejected for 4.3 reason design spam as there are already lots of dating apps in the store reason. We have a unique audience and features (of course also common features like other dating as cannot be avoided chat, some like function etc), and a lof of users were looking forward to our ios version, they are still using the web and ask us every day when they can use ios app. App got rejected and what is unfair is that we can mention at least 5 apps that are total trash in terms of features that do exist in app store same category and are our rivals published without any problem. We submitted after 2 weeks a totally new concept for the app, new menus, animations etc to make it more unique so is not anymore under design spam. Now it was rejected again for same reason and we are out of ideas what to change for the next submission. Our designers a
