Reply to problema publicando mi primera app
We are not able to provide feedback on app concepts or features, but we recommend evaluating your app against the App Store Review Guidelines, as well as the iOS Developer Program License Agreement (PLA), and the Human Interface Guidelines. ¿Es el único comentario que hacen los revisores de la Appstore? ¿No dice nada sobre la aplicación, qué hace? Las directrices de la Appstore no son tan largas de leer. Y podrías centrarte en unas pocas: 4.1 Copias: ¿es tu aplicación similar a una ya existente? 4.2 funcionalidad mínima: ¿hace tu aplicación un buen uso de las capacidades de iOS? 4.3 Spam: ¿responde a una necesidad ya cubierta por muchas aplicaciones? 5.6.4 Calidad de la aplicación En tu próximo envío a Appstore, explica al revisor en los comentarios lo que has hecho para solucionar los problemas planteados en las revisiones anteriores. Eso suele ayudar. Is it the only comment made by Appstore reviewers ? You do not tell anything about the app, what it is doing ? Appstore guidelines are not that long

Reply to 4.3 Design Spam
a) It might be that this particular submittal/app is flagged, but, a rejected app by itself doesn't necessarilty mean an account is flagged, unless, the rejection also perhaps said 'account is under investigation', in which case you may be prohibited from submitting additional apps, in which case there wouldn't be any 'future reviews' to be shadowed, so... Your question seems to conflate apps w/accounts, and, you didn't share the rejections/appeals, so, not clear.b) If I can be blunt - A 4.3, IMHO, is a polite way of saying 'sorry, you don't have an app'. You can't adjust something that isn't there.c) Subjective? Seems like a trick question.BTW, we haven't used iTC for quite some time. ASC now, App Store Connect.

Reply to Apple Developer Program account under investigation
I have a 6 million downloaded basketball game, I made a soccer game based on it by 1.5 years. Apple rejected the soccer game and told me that they will terminate my account after 14 days, I feel inexplicable, I have never sell this game, I transferred the basketball game to a new account because I don't want to lose it after 14 days.I submited the soccer game again for review by another new account.But it has been rejected by 4.3 spam, ridiculously he said that I dumplicated my own game, because I used to submitted the game by the terminated account. And the new account under investigation.I have not update the basketball game for 6 months,I don't want lost the basketball game if I update it.

Reply to Guideline 4.3 - Design - Abuse against developers?
Basically, I have been dealing with the same issue. Apple is just basically sending auto-responses. So here is basically what Apple will allow you to do.1. If you upload an app and get hit with 4.3 or 4.2.62. Build your container app3. Your container app will get rejected because of the auto scans apple is doing.4. Reply in the first rejected app that you have built a container app and reference that container app5. Apple will reply super quick6. Your app will go into review!So basically Apple is giving you one more app to make in your developer account... If you follow their rules they will work with you very fast. I don't like what is happening but I do like that they are giving us an option... Hope this helps everyone.

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 App Store Review 4.3 . help!help!help!
We are going through a same problem. We have spent about 1 year in developing our multiplayer card game. All the code is written from scratch by our team in unity. For design, we purchased some of the assets pack from unity asset store and we do have the licence to use them. We were very happy with the quality of our game and when we received this weird message (Guideline 4.3 - Design) from the App Store review team, all of us are in shock. So, is our hard work going in vain because we really can't change anything in our game and if we change anything, we will see bugs in our game and it becomes very hard to handle online games. We are feeling very helpless and our team are not able to work since we received this message. Please, if anyone can help us, that will be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Reply to How to publish new dating app?
Hello, If you want to get approval from the Apple Store, you need to ensure that your dating app is unique and also provides a valuable environment for users. One of the reasons the app is rejected is because it failed to have a unique value proposition. You should ensure your app offers a distinct set of features or functionalities to stand out from the crowd. Other than that, here are some factors you shouldn’t overlook if you want to pass guideline 4.3: Ensure that your app actually addresses the needs of a particular/target group. Features are up to the market standards. Prioritize high-quality and visually appealing Design. Make sure to have transparency. To learn more in detail about how to submit your app to the App Store, check out this link: https://www.nimbleappgenie.com/blogs/submit-app-to-app-store/

Reply to Having Multiple Similar Apps
4. 3 Design: SpamGuideline 4.3 - DesignYour app provides the same feature set as many of the other apps you've submitted to the App Store; it simply varies in content or language. Creating multiple Bundle IDs of the same app is not appropriate. Next Steps To resolve this issue, please combine apps with similar feature sets into a single container app. You should differentiate varied content within your app by categorizing elements into groups, using the in-app purchase API, and location services to deliver content to users. Once you have done so, please reply to this message via Resolution Center indicating the app name and Apple ID of any container apps submitted under your Apple Developer Program account.
