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

Repeated 4.3 Design Spam Rejections Due to False Copyright Claim
I’m posting this here as a last resort as I’ve exhausted all options including numerous unsuccessful messages and appeals to the App Review Team and App Review Board. On April 1, 2022, a simple bug fix update was rejected and the app and account was under investigation. This had never happened to me before so I wasn’t sure what was going on. After a couple of days, the App Review Team concluded their investigation and rejected my app due to 4.3.0 spam design (“same features to other apps”). This took me surprise as my app was doing well and offered users unique features not found on other similar apps. These features were added due to request from my customers. I then realized this was most likely caused by a copyright claim my app received in March by another app developer that had a similar app on the App Store. The copyright claim was recently dropped by the complainant as their rights were not being infringed but it appears that my app and account have been flagged as a spammer. All because of a false cop

Hello, I allow myself to contact you because following two rejections of the update of my application because of a problem of multiple bundle ID, I rechecked my package in unity, checking the version numbers in xcode is all looks okay to me? Is there anything else I could look at? I had released an update a few days before without worries, thank you in advance for your answers

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!

Memory allocation and deallocation issues in c++ code
I am porting an image processing app using a camera developed by Android to IOS, and try to use C++ code used by Android in IOS. Install the necessary library and link the target c++ code using objective-c wrapper. The problem is that when a function with particularly large number of memory allocation/release ends in the C++ code, an error is definitely issued as the local variables are released. Error: Corrupt value: 0x3fc93ba18499360a GBCare(20641,0x16bcfb000) malloc: *** set a breakpoint in malloc_error_break to debug GBCare(20641,0x16bcfb000) malloc: Incorrect checksum for freed object 0x11556d1e0: probably modified after being freed. Corrupt value: 0x3fc93ba18499360a Additionally, the same error occurs sometimes at the location where the type of memory is allocated (e.g., cv::Mat.clone, cv:Mat::zeros) and we checked that the correct parameter was included. I don't know what it means, but if you do it as shown in the picture below in Product-Scheme-Edit Scheme, it works normally without errors. I think it

4.3 Design Spam
I've been updating an old app developed previously by someone else. He stopped working on this app some time ago, and my client assigned this job to me (this app developer previously worked for my client). He deleted his version from the App Store. But. when I try to publish my version (with the same name, features etc. only with some minor updates) it gets rejected with: 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've contacted the review team, telling them that there are no other apps like this one and that Im doing it with the consent of the same app company. But they keep sending me the same message. Unfortunately the original app creator can't move his app onto my account (his apple developer membership expired). And now I don't have a clue how to publish the new version, maybe its because of the different app bundle id? (For some reason it says that the o

Reply to Apple's spam policy
Do your apps have the same icon ? Read those older posts: https://developer.apple.com/forums/thread/46910 https://developer.apple.com/forums/thread/114079 Did you consider inApp purchase, as recommended in guidelines ? 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.

Guideline 4.3 - Design - Spam Has been really checked by human or is a bot message?
Hello, I've uploaded my first application on applestore and they 've replied : Your app primarily features astrology, horoscopes, palm reading, fortune telling or zodiac reports. As such, it duplicates the content and functionality of many other similar apps currently available on the App Store. While these app features may be useful, informative or entertaining, we simply have enough of these types of apps on the App Store, and they are considered a form of spam. My application is related Turkish Coffee, i have explained unique features and differences from other applications. Added special review notes, and uploaded detailed screenshots. I've not send 2. submission before get replied from Apple, and then i have asked to make a phone call, then they said okay we will call you in 3 days, but no sound again. In this time i have entered much more detail to my application and sent to review again with new features. Buuum: i've got same message again. I don't believe my application reviewed by human, because ther

App rejected on 4.3 Design - spam
I have stuck with 4.3 policy for around 1 month. I don't understand Apple reviewer kept hitting me with 4.2 policy without further explain the problem. I do refer to other app and copy some code from stack overflow, how do I know which part is causing the problem. My app provide better soothing sound quality and the UI is all different. Thanks, kindly advise .....

Reply to Homekit QR code
Assuming you are a registered MFI developer then the spec for the QR code is documented in the HomeKit Accessory Protocol Specification - in version R15 of that spec it is in section 4.3. You can download the spec from the MFI website when you log in on your account.
