Odd memory usage in user space application causing kernel panics
Hello, We are developing a multimedia routing platform written in Rust and uses gstreamer 1.20. We are targeting running on Mac Minis (older intel and newer M1/2/3/... w/ 8GB ram) using macOS 14.6.1 I have profiled memory usage using XCode instruments with the allocation tool, stack and heap memory is very stable once the pipelines are up and running. There are between 50 to 100 incoming RTSP streams with multiple webrtc connections, so lots of network and memory bandwidth is being used. However, we eventually see real memory usage increasing in Activity Monitor along with memory pressure increasing, but the heap/stack usage is constant in instruments, so we do not understand this behavior. Page fragmentation is a possibility, but have not been able to prove this with instruments. Please see attached image.You can see that 10-minute run had a total of approx 4.3 GB of allocations, but only 50.17MB persistent. Eventually we see kernel panics in either userspace watchdog timeout: no successful checkins

App rejected into beta testing design spam.
I recently submitted my app, Ai voice changer - Video effects (Build version 1.0.0 (2)), for beta testing and received feedback indicating that my app was rejected due to a violation of Guideline 4.3(a) - Design - Spam. The rejection email states that my app shares a similar binary, metadata, and/or concept to apps already submitted to the App Store, with only minor differences, leading to the classification of my app as spam. I would like to respectfully request clarification regarding the specific aspects of my app that led to this rejection. I have ensured that the app I submitted offers unique functionalities and has been carefully designed to stand out from other apps in the same category. The features of my app, including apply voice changer effects on videos, were developed with originality and are intended to offer a new experience to users. To provide additional context, my app was created using a unique approach and has distinct features compared to other voice changers available on the App

Unfair Rejection – Minglr App Constantly Denied Without Clear Justification (Escalation Request)
Hello Apple Developer Community, We are reaching out in frustration after facing multiple rejections for our app, Minglr, under Guideline 4.3(a) – Spam, despite the fact that: • Our app was approved in May 2024 and has passed four updates without any issue related to design or concept similarity. • The current rejection contradicts Apple’s own approval history, despite no fundamental changes to our UI/UX. • We have built Minglr’s design from scratch in Figma (with a full design history to prove it) and yet are not being given the opportunity to provide evidence. • We have requested Apple to clarify which app they are comparing us to, but they refuse to provide details, making it impossible to properly address their concerns. Why This Feels Unfair & Inconsistent • Apple continues to approve apps with identical UI and UX (such as dating apps), yet a completely different social app like Minglr is being flagged without justification. • If a similar app exists, Apple should confirm whether it was subm

Re-released product marked as 'spam'
I recently decided to re-upload a game I've created a while back since I have the spare time to refine it to adhere to today's requirements. The old version has been deleted from the store and I needed to renew my App Store Connect paid agreement. I updated my product, paid for App Store Connect, uploaded and was horrified to receive a review of '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. Learn more about our requirements to prevent spam in App Review Guideline 4.3(a)._ Being confused by this response, I initially thought this must be because they're comparing it to the old upload which has been deleted from the store. I went ahead and expained this but also asked for more info just in case someone has repacked my product. I received this response: Than

Apple keeps preventing us for updating our app
It has been over a month since we first attempted to update our app. The issue we wanted to resolve is a bug that prevents in-app purchases from functioning properly. Fixing this bug was crucial—not only for our users but also for us as a company. However, what seemed like a simple fix has turned into an absolute nightmare. Despite our app successfully undergoing 20+ updates in the past, we now face a consistent rejection under guideline 4.3(a) - Design - Spam. Every single submission has been met with the same response. We’ve made significant changes to the app, introduced numerous features, and thoroughly reviewed every aspect, yet the rejections persist. Desperate for clarity, we scheduled a call with an Apple representative. During the call, we were told that the issue was related to our app’s screenshots. We accepted their feedback, updated the screenshots, and resubmitted the app—only to be rejected again. Since then, we’ve submitted the app three additional times, each with new sets of screens

Rejected for Guideline 4.3a - Spam and Account Termination because of that
Hello, I am a solo game developer with four years of experience, and I have recently decided to publish my games on the Apple App Store to bring a fresh vibe and address some issues I noticed in my game genre. I create games from scratch, often combining two genres to create unique experiences. One example is my electric car driving simulator, which includes unique systems like temperature-affected battery range, dynamic weather, a battery company management feature, police escape missions, and more. (Electric car games are not very common on the App Store, and mine stands out with these innovative features.) However, I’ve been facing issues when trying to publish my games. Since I began submitting my games, I’ve received repeated 4.3 Design Spam rejections. Whenever I request concrete feedback to understand the reasons behind these rejections, I consistently get the same general response about binary data, metadata, or game concepts. Recently, I was notified that my account is going to be suspended

Pending Termination Notice: Seeking Clarification on Linked Developer Accounts and Appeal Status
Hello everyone, I am the developer of a small app studio that has been creating and publishing apps on the App Store since 2017. Our main app recently reached the Top 5 in the Lifestyle category, serving thousands of paying subscribers and gaining around 15,000 new downloads per day until it was suddenly removed from the App Store along with our other apps. On October 11, 2025, I received a Pending Account Termination Notice for my main developer account. A few months earlier, on August 15, 2025, another account registered under my name had also received a pending termination related to Guideline 4.3(b) for a duplicate binary submission. That app was never live on the App Store. Once I realized the issue, I rejected the binary myself and stopped all activity on that account. I believe both accounts became linked because the same Apple ID and bank information were briefly used during setup. This may have caused Apple to associate the two accounts. Both accounts are fully verified legal entities. Since

Want one view landscape-only, other view portrait-only, does not work (read many StackOverflow posts)
The previous screen (user registration form) in my iOS app is ONLY portrait, and I have another screen (image gallery) that should ONLY be landscape, and so the Xcode settings for my project support portrait, landscape left, and landscape right (right???).However, the previous screen (user registration form) should ONLY be portrait (this has always been the case, though), and the current screen (the image gallery) should ONLY be landscape (by that I mean landscape left and landscape right -- NEVER portrait, even at start).Accordingly, I added these overridden methods to my current screen's view controller like so:- (NSUInteger)supportedInterfaceOrientations{ return UIInterfaceOrientationMaskLandscape; } - (UIInterfaceOrientation)preferredInterfaceOrientationForPresentation { return UIInterfaceOrientationLandscapeRight; } - (BOOL)shouldAutorotate { return YES; }This is what all of the documentation and Stack Overflow advice says should do the trick (including official Apple Technical Note #2244 https://develop

Spam Design
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

Why Apple review team start marked all stickers pack as Spam ?
I have more then 100 stickers pack for iMessage in AppStore. Week ago all my stickers pack for iMessage was marked as spam . Now I can't publish new stickers or update old.____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.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._______With the release of XCode 10 in 2016, functionality for creating sticker packs without using code was added to XCode as separate t

Convert IOSurface-backed texture to GL_TEXTURE_2D
StackOverflow-question with bounty: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/38361376/convert-iosurface-backed-texture-to-gl-texture-2dI want to render an IOSurface texture with mipmapping.I am generating an OpenGL texture from an IOSurface like so:let error = CGLTexImageIOSurface2D(context.cglContextObj!, GLenum(GL_TEXTURE_RECTANGLE_ARB),GLenum(GL_RGBA), GLsizei(width), GLsizei(height), GLenum(GL_BGRA), GLenum(GL_UNSIGNED_INT_8_8_8_8_REV), surface!, 0)And rendering it with a simple fragment shader:#version 120 uniform sampler2DRect texture; varying vec2 texCoord; uniform vec2 size; void main(){ vec4 tex = texture2DRect(texture, texCoord*size); gl_FragColor = tex; }This works fine. But unfortunately, the texture is not mipmapped and is very grainy/pixellated when viewed at a smaller size. Upon further research, it appears that not only are IOSurface backed textures limited to a GL_TEXTURE_RECTANGLE_ARB target, they also do not support mipmapping.Allright. So my best alternative here seems to be to:Copy the GL_TEXTU

complaint about the fake activities of two app creators
I am writing to make a complaint about the fake activities of two app creators , which you should take a serious action against them. PDF Scanner & Editor + (https://apps.apple.com/us/developer/hq-tools/id1676624003) Good PDF Editor (https://apps.apple.com/us/developer/khelp-tim-tov/id1650247356) Previously, I had reported these two apps, (https://developer.apple.com/forums/thread/718992 ) and now again. These two apps are using spamming strategies and tries to exploit App Store leaks on their marketing. 

 These two apps are exactly same as each other, and it has been creating by one creator, With Different name, But even the seller name has same pattern, Both has TOV expression at the end, It is obviously shown these two apps which are exactly same as each other, has one Creator. Seller: SKOL LTD, TOV Seller: KHELP TIM, TOV Recently Appstore took an action against a leak of the Appstore and those creators who used the word Good in the title of their App Event or name of the app, Now if you look at these

Apple is preventing us from updating our app
In December 2022 we published an app. Since then, we published countless updates, never had any problem with the app. We have hundreds of new users daily, got far more than 100k downloads in total, have paying/subscribed users. The beginning of December 2024 in app update that shoudl fix a crucial bug, we suddenly received this rejection: _Guideline 4.3(a) - Design - Spam: We continue to notice that 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._ What makes it even worse is: In our latest update that we published is a very crucial bug. Literally just days after we noticed this bug we fixed it and sent another version for review. Since then the rejections happened. I do not understand why Apple, out of nowhere, suddenly, prevents us to update/fix our application. It caused us
