“4.3”

Hi, I have a VPN app that was developed using Flutter, and all of the codebase was created on our own. We are not using any code templates or etc. However it constantly gets rejected due to this reason. My suspicion is that I was originally developing this app using another developer account, and we had submitted it to TestFlight before. If I remove this app from my older account, would it still be considered as a duplication of existing app?

Hello, My company is developing an interactive story game (or a visual novel with multiple ongoing and updated stories). We've added a few unique features to add value to our proposal, but we have been rejected due to Design 4.3 (0) Spam two times now. When trying to get more information from the message from the App Review team, we're only getting what we believe are automated responses Here's the message to our first submission: Guideline 4.3(a) - Design - Spam We noticed your app shares a similar binary, metadata, and/or concept as apps submitted to the App Store by other developers, with only minor differences. Submitting similar or repackaged apps is a form of spam that creates clutter and makes it difficult for users to discover new apps. Next Steps Since we do not accept spam apps on the App Store, we encourage you to review your app concept and submit a unique app with distinct content and functionality After the first rejection, we looked into the game and make substantial changes t

Hi there, Im trying to submit an app but is rejected from apple gour guidelines 4.3(a) Design-Spam violation. Can someone help me with that please?

Dear App Store Review Team, We have made the necessary changes to our app, addressing any elements that might have caused similarities with other apps, such as shared open-source components. However, our app is still being rejected under Guideline 4.3. We are unclear on the specific reason for this. Could you please clarify which app our app is being compared to? Is the similarity in the code or the design? If it's the design, could you provide further guidance on which parts are considered similar? With a limited number of UI styles available, we are unsure if it is essential to create a completely unique design to comply with Guideline 4.3. Our app distinguishes itself through its operations, such as having a 99% message delivery success rate and providing superior service. However, these differences may not be immediately visible within the app itself. We would greatly appreciate clearer feedback and more specific advice on how to address this issue. Additionally, we are curious why our a

After successfully passing the review for version 1.0, I was consistently rejected after updating to version 1.0.1 with 4.3 (a). However, I only added some paid products to the original features, and did not make any changes to the layout or UI design. Why do you keep rejecting me. Multiline BlockQuote hello, Thank you for your message. Regarding Guideline 4.3（a）, we continue to notice that your app shares a similar binary, metadata, and/or concept as apps submitted to the App Store by other developers, with only minor differences. Some factors that contribute to a spam rejection may include: Submitting an app with the same source code or assets as other apps already submitted to the App Store Creating and submitting multiple similar apps using a repackaged app template Purchasing an app template with problematic code from a third party Submitting several similar apps across multiple accounts We hope that you will make the appropriate changes to your app to bring it into compliance with the

I have a series of 4 titles that date back 15(!) years in the app store. The games are series (like Super Mario Brothers) - where the game play is largely identical - but the levels are entirely different. 3 versions of the game share much of the source code. I recently tried to release an update to one of them - and found my app rejected due to being Spam. Guideline 4.3(a) - Design - Spam Specifically, this app is available in the same locations as another identical app you submitted to the App Store. I've tried appealing - and even sent app review videos of a happy customer playing different installments of the series all-the-way-through. I long ago gave up charging for the game (there aren't even ads). I am trying to keep them up-to-date largely because they are still popular with kids and retro-gamers. When I expressed confusion about why now - after 15-years there is suddenly a problem - I received: Thank you for your reply. Please note that previous approval to the App Store does not guarantee

Hi My app was work fine since 2023 till i uploaded new update on april 2024 i got rejected due to Guideline 4.3(a) and since that i have made a lot of changes but still getting me that. below message what they have keep Guideline 4.3(a) - Design - Spam This app duplicates the content and functionality of other apps on the App Store, which is considered a form of spam. Specifically, this app is available in the same locations as another identical app you submitted to the App Store. Apps that duplicate content or functionality create clutter, diminish the overall experience for the end user, and reduce the ability of developers to market their apps. Next Steps It would be appropriate to restrict the available storefronts for these apps and ensure none of the selected storefronts overlap. Restrict storefronts by selecting None on Country or Region Availability in App Store Connect and then select the desired countries or regions.

Need Help with App Store Rejection - Violation of Guideline 4.3(a) After Uploading a New Version Hi everyone, I’m currently facing an issue while trying to bring our team’s app back to the App Store, and I would greatly appreciate any support or suggestions from everyone. Our team’s app is a language learning app specifically designed for a particular group of users. Previously, the app was uploaded by a team member who was responsible for registering and uploading the app to the store, but this person has since left the team. Before leaving, she did not hand over any information, we only requested that the app be removed from the store, and now we cannot get in touch with she to retrieve the account and proceed with the transfer. Recently, our team registered a new account and attempted to upload the app again. However, Apple rejected it for violating Guideline 4.3(a) - Design - Spam. I suspect the rejection is due to residual data from the old account, even though our app is unique and hig

My application was developed by myself There is a reason for being misunderstood Please allow me to provide some information： My application has already been launched on a macOS platform version (temporarily called AAA). I encountered difficulties in compiling the SDK, as it cannot be compatible with two platforms in the same project at the same time. Therefore, I have specifically developed an iOS version (temporarily called BBB) This version uses a different bundle ID from the plaintiff's macOS platform version, equivalent to two independent apps. Then, the (BBB) version of my iOS platform was rejected. The reason was 4.3- Spam. I accepted this decision and did not attempt to apply for listing again, and deleted the relevant information. Later on, I spent time and finally overcame the difficulties of SDK compilation, successfully developing an iOS version (temporarily called CCC) based on the macOS version, using the same bundle ID as the macOS version, which can be considered as the same app My ne
