Reply to XCode 6 with deployment target iOS5 possible?
As far as I tested, when I set the Deployment Target down to 4.3 in the Info pane of the PROJECT setting, I can choose down to 4.3 in the General pane of the TARGETS. This may depend on other settings and I haven't checked all combinations, so please start checking with a simple new project.Anyway, I couldn't find any announcements regarding the deplpyment target from Apple, other than- You need to build your app with the 8.0 SDK or later.- Your app needs to suppert 64-bit.So, apps targeting iOS 5 should be approved for the App Store, if you can fulfill other requirements.Sorry, but the minimum targeted version of our recently released apps is iOS 6, so I may be missing something.

Guideline 4.3(a) - Design - Spam - automatic rejection
I previously written here, and some advices were to appeal to rejection sending them message describing uniqueness of the app. Nothing is working. In short, i have a vpn app (of course by design shares some concept with other apps that are in the app store). But since the rejection i have completely changed the ui, added built in browser, p2p messenger so users could interact with each other without any interference. The app is completely free with no ads. I thought this is it, there's no way it would reject this time, but... i get a notification with rejection repeating the same old message. I'm extremely frustrated and don't know what to do. Tried changing the logo of the app, the name to Incognito - Messenger, VPN, app store screenshots. I've already appealed with screenshots describing unique features that other vpn apps don't have, but the message just repeats from app review team. Submission ID: 1a49ee0b-c4e2-4a36-8372-e4d3b9a8b13f Does anybody have an advice what i can do?

Reply to 4.3 guideline nightmare
Same here. We have done dozens of apps which serve a particular type of business. Needless to say we try to produce them in a way that it is cost efficient for those businesses. But each app has a totally different look and the content is always different (each one has different data and data sources).Yes Apple is reject saying these violate 4.3. We have been doing this for years, have 700 clients and service customers from small to the largest of their kind in the world. Apple review used to be great and smooth and fast. Now it's become one reject after another that makes no sense with this 4.3. reject being the latest reject fad.

App Rejected Under Guideline 4.3(a) - “Spam” for Unofficial Telegram Client with Unique Features
Hi everyone, I’m currently working on a project based on the Telegram iOS open-source code. My goal is to build an unofficial Telegram client with Telegram’s permission (they have publicly allowed third-party clients under their open-source license). My app includes unique new features and UI improvements that are not present in the official Telegram app. Essentially, it’s Telegram plus additional features — built from the official source, but extended significantly. However, when I try to submit my app to the App Store, Apple rejects the build under Guideline 4.3(a) - Design - Spam with this message: “We still 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.” I completely understand Apple’s intent to prevent low-effort clones or spam apps. However, in my case, this is

Reply to Having Multiple Similar Apps
Is there any real resolution regarding this design 4.3 rejection?Our account belongs to a parent company which owns many subsidiary companies. Each has its own mobile app and shares some general app architecture and functions and of course provides certain company-specific functions. This app rejection design 4.3 seriously affects all our mobile app submission. We can no longer arrange app submission for new app or app upgrade. This really impacts our business. Seems this rule is tightened starting from end of June 2017 but poorly explained to public and affects many parent companies' strategies and app management. Any idea?Hope Apple can seriously review this design 4.3 rule which should stop real spam app but allows white label apps for different entities under parent company or any similar scenario like University app. It does not make sense to offer a single container unversity app for XXX University aliance which actually offers services for many individual universities under t

How long should it take to install watchOS 4.3 beta 3
I’m attempting to download this update. I’m using an iPhone X to the Series 3 watch and it’s been longer than 120 minutes since the download completed. It’s been sitting at “verifying” for the last 90 minutes and it seems to be stuck there. I’m running all Apple networking and it’s very quick.What‘s a “normal” download and install timeframe?Thank you for any and all help / suggestions

Appeal for App Rejected Under 4.3(b) – Looking for Insight on Short Video + AI Dating App
Hi all, I’ve been working on an innovative dating app — it focuses on short videos and AI-powered recommendations, rather than static profiles/images and swipe interactions. It includes: Short-form video feeds instead of pictures AI-generated summaries from uploaded videos (hobbies, personality, etc.) AI-driven feed recommendations based on user like behavior Free, unlimited messaging between mutually interested users Inclusive for all genders, non-swipe-based UI Despite these features, the app has been repeatedly rejected under Guideline 4.3(b): Design – Spam. The review feedback refers to duplicative functionality in a saturated category. I’ve filed an appeal and previously raised this in the forums — where I received helpful feedback. I would love any insights, examples, or advice from others who’ve built in saturated categories while navigating this rule. I genuinely believe the app brings something innovation and unique experience to dating app users on iPhone. And it's bringing some freshness t

Reply to My App Rejected 4.3 Design: Spam
There are a number of app genres that the App Store reviewers decided to be too saturated. Among those are astrology, horoscope, palm-reading, and similar tell-your-future-from-your-biometric apps. If your app is one of those, you can't publish it on the App Stores. You could try publishing it as a Developer ID macOS application – use Catalyst if it's an iOS app. However there are other causes of Guideline 4.3 Spam rejection: Publishing similar apps that differs only in content. Publishing white-label apps under your own Developer Account. A competitor's app looks similar to yours. Search the web for How to Pass App Store Review: Guideline 4.3 Spam to find out how to diagnose the problem further as well as some potential solutions.
