copycat

The app or its metadata appears to contain potentially misleading content. Specifically, the app includes content that resembles AlphaCargo without the necessary authorizatin.

Our app ХАЙП ИГРЫ (HYPE GAMES) keeps getting rejected under Guideline 4.1 – Copycats, but we’re not receiving any specific feedback or examples of what exactly is being flagged. We’ve fully rebuilt the app multiple times: All content is now original (graphics, UI, icons, name, etc.) The app does not refer to or imitate any existing brand or app The same version was already approved on Google Play We've removed anything that could even theoretically be misinterpreted as copycat content However, App Review continues to send the same generic message saying the app “appears to misrepresent itself,” without pointing to any concrete element, screenshot, or example. We’ve explicitly asked for clarification or even a single screenshot of the issue, but the replies remain copy-pasted and non-informative. Has anyone else faced this issue? What can be done if App Review won’t identify what’s wrong? We genuinely want to comply and are ready to fix any real problem, but right now we are just guessing — a

I have submitted my app 5 times now :|. Finally got it to the last (hopefully) rejection issue. This one I don't know how to fix though. It's saying there isn't valid proof of authorization for this app even though I am the web designer and am working along side the CEO of the company to have it published. Here is the Binary Rejection: Your app or its metadata appears to still contain potentially misleading content. Specifically, your app includes content that resembles KlosetSlayer without the necessary authorization. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Hello,My app just got rejected because the app icon resembelled a personality for whom i am making this application. This is extremely frustuating, i have permission to do that.

Hello, My game was rejected for the reasons mentioned below. However, I am unable to identify or understand the exact issue. I would like to share all the documents and information I have here, hoping that this will help identify what is wrong or what is actually correct. The story, gameplay, level design, and all the coding of my game are completely original and created by me. Additionally, any third-party assets I’ve used are fully licensed and invoiced. For example, if I’ve used a model that I didn't design myself, I purchased it and modified it to fit my original design. I have all the documentation to prove this. The name of my game is James War and it is currently published on Google Play under my own name. James is the name of the main character in the game. Since the game is based on a psychological and philosophical novel-style concept, it represents a metaphorical “war” within James' own identity – a psychological battle, so to speak. I submitted the same promotional materials to the App Store as I

My application does not compete with the developer. It’s an extension which sits on top of their website. Its only use is to work with their website. Without using their name, the extension does not make any sense. The developer not only has no issue with it - some of their own employees use the extension. To get documentation from developer, that’s easy. However, two questions: Developer wants to know what needs to be provided? An email, A statement? How / what format would be required they are asking? How does such above documentation get submitted / included in subsequent updates to Not hinder approval? The app went through 8 positive reviews / approvals and then all of a sudden this happened out of no where. So not understanding what changed on Apples side and how/what is sufficient documentation (email, statement, PDF, ????) from developer? thanks.
