4.3

My app keep getting rejected after changing complete UI. It's an finance tool app. any advice 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. Resources 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 have developed an app called FastUP, which has been constantly reminding us of 4.3(a). We have uploaded the original evidence of the developed code and UI design drafts, but it still keeps giving us this problem. There will be no manual response and no consideration of our explanations. It always just reacts mechanically. This is a repetitive application. Could you please explain how to apply it repeatedly when our code is original and the UI is also original? Is it possible that there can only be one tool-type app in the AppStore? ？ Every time during the process of applying for the phone communication, we were told there was no problem, but they still gave us incorrect information and kept deceiving us. Is this not discrimination against us just because we applied for the Chinese voice phone service?

Hi all, I'm looking for guidance or experiences from others who’ve run into this issue. I'm developing a series of educational apps that teach different languages from English, using a simple flashcard-based format. Each app is fully offline, has no ads, no subscriptions, and contains native audio and culturally relevant images for that specific language. Each language pack (audio + images + data) is around 50MB, and I’m planning to support 50 languages. Because of size constraints and my offline-first approach, it’s not feasible to combine all languages into a single app. To stay user-friendly and efficient: Each app contains only one language. Each has its own name and icon (e.g., “Babel Bash Chinese ”, “Babel Bash Thai”). All use the same visual structure (by design) for brand consistency and usability. Despite this, I’ve had an app rejected under Guideline 4.3(a) – Spam, with the reasoning that it duplicates the functionality of another app I've submitted (even though the language, audio, and vis

Hello everyone, I'm seeking some advice and perspective from the community regarding an appeal I've submitted to the App Review Board. My app, (App ID: 6748638280), was recently rejected under Guideline 4.3 - Spam. We believe this was a misunderstanding, as our app is a highly specialized academic tool for the study of Qimen Dunjia (奇門遁甲), a complex form of ancient Chinese metaphysics. It is a professional calculation engine, not a generic fortune-telling app. We submitted a detailed appeal to the App Review Board two weeks ago, explaining the unique, academic nature of our app and providing a link to a demo video that showcases its innovative features (like its real-world compass integration and its unique data visualization system). As of today, we have not yet received a response. I completely understand that the review process takes time, and I want to be respectful of the board's workload. However, I'm starting to wonder if this length of time without a reply is normal for an appeal. I would be

Hi everyone, I would like to ask for help how should I resolve the issue with app submission for Guideline 4.3(a) - Design - Spam. I will explain my case to you. I assigned a task to junior engineer to submit an app from a personal developer account because my organization account has not been available yet. I thought I could be transfer later or resubmit under different bundle id and account would be okay. yes, it was my fault . But the app review process was taking too long in the personal account and I told him to cancel and delete the app submission, thinking that there might be not issue since the app was not released in AppStore. After I submitted the updated version of app with organization account, it doesn't get approve and getting 4.3.0 Spam rejection. We have taken about 6 months of work putting all the efforts both in the technical and business side on the product from scratch. We are about to launch in next week and our app is got rejected. I don't know what to do. I've all the authority

Hi everyone, We’re a U.S.-registered company and just submitted our primary app for review. We tried to be proactive: our initial submission included very detailed Notes to the Reviewer to avoid back-and-forth. Despite that, our first rejection asked for items we had already covered in Notes. Within ~30 minutes we replied in the Resolution Center with expanded details. The app went back to review and about 90% of the concerns were resolved. After that, we could see from our logs that the reviewer actively tested the app and requested additional legal documentation. We provided everything promptly, but the next response was a rejection under Guideline 4.3(a) – Design – Spam. There was no additional explanation tying 4.3(a) to anything specific in our binary or metadata, and this guideline hasn’t come up for us before. Here’s what we already provided via the Resolution Center: Test credentials and clear steps to access all app areas Detailed terms and in-app disclosures Executed agreements wit

Hi. My friend and I are new to app developing. We made an app together and I made one alone on the side. But we are not joined. we each pay seperate taxes and not some scam design post of apps. Apple flagged both with spam design, so we assumed it was related. but not sure anymore. app1 is a travel related app operating globally. we have IAP but also destination inspiration and global food information, which is free in the app. app2 is about one single country and has a lot of information about travelling in that country and some IAP too. IAP in both apps are the same product, but unique in appstore. it only exists on websites apart from these two apps. both are made in adalo so even though the colours are different they are made in the same system. In app1 IAP is the main product, in app2 its not. we have tried so much to get app1 through but they keep rejecting with spam design. After a while they suddenly approved app2, after renaming it, changing colours and highlighting the information about the country
