5.1.1

Hi there, I got my recent app rejected and they sent me this: We found in our review that your app does not meet all of our requirements for apps that offer highly regulated services or handle sensitive user data. Specifically: The account that submits the app must be enrolled in the Apple Developer Program as an organization, and not as an individual. The guideline 5.1.1(ix) requirements give App Store users confidence that apps operating in highly regulated fields or that require sensitive user information are qualified to provide these services and will responsibly manage their data. Next steps, To resolve this issue, it would be appropriate to take the >following steps: Your app must be submitted through an Apple Developer Program account enrolled as an organization. You may either enroll in a new Apple Developer Program account as an organization, or request that your individual account be converted to an organization account by contacting Apple Developer Support. Please note that you cannot

Earlier last week my app was rejected stating the reason that We noticed that your app requires users to register or log in to access features that are not account-based. I would like to know if can the app have a sign in with later/Continue as guest option to view non account related information like privacy policy, helpcenter and terms along with the product listing of the app.Will that functionality comply under the guidelines mentioned from your side earlier?

Hi, we have built an App which aprroval has been rejected because we ask to enter some registration personal data that is neccesary for some material gathering during a social event. There is a data gathering agreement screen where the users accept that data gathering. It seems this is not valid for Apple because they say we break 5.1.1 policy about collecting non essential data for the core functionality... we are considering to just require the user to enter his email in order to log in and we would supply a link to an external registration web page so that the users register themselves in that website, outside the App. Is it possible to require to be registered in an external website to be able to use an App? would that be allowed by Apple policies? Has anybody any similar experience with this kind of issue? Thank you very much!

《App Store Review Guidelines》 5.1.1 Data Collection and Storage(iv)SafariViewContoller must be used to visibly present information to users; the controller may not be hidden or obscured by other views or layers. Additionally,an app may not use SafariViewController to track users without their knowledge and consent.As above,does it mean that privacy policy pages have to be displayed using SFSafariViewContoller?Can I use WKWebView to display the privacy policy pages in my app?

The updated App Store Review Guideline 5.1.1(v) states that: ... If your app supports account creation, you must also offer account deletion within the app. ... Some industries, such as finance, are required by legal regulation to comply with state or federal data retention policies that prohibit account deletion. How can apps in these markets comply with this new policy?

Update on 7th June 2021 to App Store guidelines indicate that, If your app supports account creation, you must also offer account deletion within the app By when will this be effective? How much time do we get to implement this?

There was a notice in the App Store Guidelines that the account deletion function must be installed by January 31st of next year. However, I would like to know the following to reduce the risk of delaying release dates due to app rejection due to this issue. The standards in the guidelines are ambiguous, so we cannot be sure that our services meet those standards. I would like to know: A) Can the app delete function be provided on the web for mobile? (* Our service provides both in-app web view and mobile browser. ) B) When deleting an account, must all information be deleted? C) Is the name Account deletion important? We provide a function called Withdrawal of Membership, which provides the ability to deactivate account and separate information for a certain period of time and then remove it. There are cases where the customer restores the service. Any help would be appreciated.

Guideline 5.1.1 - Legal - Privacy - Data Collection and Storage We noticed that your app requires users to register with personal information to purchase non account-based in-app purchase products, which does not comply with the App Store Review Guidelines. Apps cannot require user registration prior to allowing access to app content and features that are not associated specifically to the user. Next Steps User registration that requires the sharing of personal information must be optional or tied to account-specific functionality. To resolve this issue, please make it clear to the user that registering will enable them to access the content from any of their iOS devices and provide them a way to register at any time, if they wish to later extend access to additional iOS devices. Please note that although guideline 3.1.2 of the App Store Review Guidelines requires an app to make subscription content available to all the iOS devices owned by a single user, it is not appropriate to force user registrat

SafariViewController must be used to visibly present information to users; the controller may not be hidden or obscured by other views or layers. I am not clear on what this is addressing. If an app has a link to the company's FAQ page on its website, is this page required to show up in the SFViewController? What if it showed up on the Safari web browser instead?

Hello, My app has gotten rejected because of guideline 5.1.1. My app required an account and a subscription to be used. Can someone please let me know how they were able to get approved? Would adding Apple sign in work? Would letting the user browse the empty app work? They cant of anything without a subscription so I don’t know why this is getting declined. I’ve asked if any of them would comply but the reviewer says they won’t offer any suggestions on app design, when that wasn’t the question. I just wanted to know if anything would make the app comply before I waste my time implementing anything.

Sometimes there are apps in the Appstore that do not have guest mode. If I have a self-implemented login, is the guest mode not necessary? If you don't need guest mode, I know that there is only gamecenter login. Do you have any other cases? I'm curious.

I downloaded the Xcode 7 beta and plugged in the iPad 1 that I use for testing apps that still support iOS 5.1.1, and Xcode said the device wasn't supported. I've been expecting Apple to drop support for the iPad 1 for a while, and it looks like that time has come. However, I'd like to know if Apple has stated this offically anywhere. Does anyone know?Here are the Xcode 7 release notes, but I didn't see anything there about what devices are supported:http://adcdownload.apple.com/WWDC_2015/Xcode_7_beta/Xcode_7_beta_Release_Notes.pdf

The bundle contains an invalid implementation of Swift. The app may have been built or signed with non-compliant or pre-release tools. Visit developer.apple.com for more information.Occurs when I submit to iTunes Connect from XCode 5.1.1 or the Application Loader. My app uses Swift and some Objective C libraries. I've tried switching the embedded Swift build rule, making a new project, and making a new app in iTunes Connect.
