Dear all,I am trying to learn how to code with Swift, I really want to and, to start, I completed the Intro to App Development with Swift. So far, so good ...I then passed to the App Development with Swift book as it was supposed to be a step up (at least in difficulty). I completed the first 3 units and started the 4th a few days ago.I am now stuck at unit 4.3 (Model View Controller) during the Lab at the end of the unit. No matter what I write (even if I try to copy exactly what is in the 'solution' project) I keep getting an error when trying to create Outlet(s) from the main.storyboard's text fields to the AthleteFormViewController.swift file. This error says: Could not insert new outlet connection: Could not find any information for the class named AthleteFormViewController (all of this in red color). This is the second consecutive exercise that I would have to abandon because following the EXACT instructions given in the book puts me into a dead end. Then I confront with the solutions, try them

Very first app, rejected for Spam? It seems this is quite common. This 4.3 spam reason, generally means the app is considered low quality or it's already saturated, right? There are only a handful of Free dinosaur sound apps, so I can't see the saturated reasoning. My app arguably looks better and has a better UI, the rest are pretty dated or are pretty basic. My app has a video for each dinosaur, with is unique to my app, compared to all the others. All sounds are original, the rest use royalty free sources. I'm really at a loss as to why it's considered spam, compared to what's already up there. Any tips on how to get my app approved? I'm not exactly sure how to make it better or more unique than the competition. Thanks
Is there a way out of this madness? If there are businesses that are impossible to consolidate their apps (i.e. when your business model is food ordering and your direct competitors are marketplaces so you cannot become a marketplace -it is stupid to have an online ordering marketplace with 100 clients throughout the world, we go for quality not quantity since we offer a premium product-), is Apple directly saying to us that we have to shut down? Is there an official and serious response from Apple as to what their Review Team has to see in order to accept apps? Should we rewrite 100.000 lines of code for each client so they are happy? Should we design separately 200 different online ordering apps so they are happy? What makes an app different enough for them? How can a development business make sure that if they have 20 clients for a specific kind of app and are under contract that they will not get drawn to the courthouse for not delivering to their clients?Is there really a way out of this madness?
Well it finally happened to me. I have been waiting for it. I got for rejected for spam, on a new Sudoku App. I have a Calcudoku App. A Nurikabe App. A Kakurasu App. All with the exact same interface.And I uploaded a Sudoku App, and got tagged for similar design Spam.There is ZERO way to combine the apps, unless I want to spend a few years.I can understand how the reviewer rejected it.But the 'spam design' is actually a GOOD thing. Having a similar design for completely different puzzle games add a familarity to the user. SO he / she only has to learn a new game and not a new interface.Obviously these reviewers are not programmers, and they just follow a checklist. Ironically, this is one of my best coded apps. I computer generated Sudoku Puzzles, not an easy thing to do. (They have TED talks on it)There is nothing I can do but appeal. There is no way to fix this. It is really quite depressing. I hope some of these these App reviewers are programmers, and my appeal is accepted.
The discussion is under guideline 4.3. See, for example, https://forums.developer.apple.com/thread/85411
Hi everyone,I got an application from a market and send to store. But rejected. What kind of changes can I make?We noticed that your 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, which is considered a form of spam.The following apps were found to provide different content but are identical in functionality:1262896391Next StepsTo resolve this issue, please combine apps with a common feature set into a single container app.You will experience a delayed review process if you deliberately disregard the App Store Review Guidelines, ignore previous rejection feedback in future app submissions, or use your app to mislead or deceive users.Important InformationAs a result of violating this guideline, your app’s review has been delayed. Future submissions of this app, and other apps associated with your Apple Developer account, will also experience a delayed review. Deliberate disregard of the App Store Review Guidelines and attem
Hi, I am stuck at Design Spam, I have done numerous revisions but still i am getting We still 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. from app review team. The app which I am trying to submit is a simple social media app, and its been almost a month it could not pass the review. I have updated meta data, updated assets but still app is getting rejected. Has anyone faced similar case, if yes then how did they solved it? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks
Seems that the iOS Deployment target was too low (4.3). Setting that to iOS 7 fixed the problem. Hope this helps.
Latest Xcode will accept deployment targets down to 4.3. I wrote an app for my daughter's iPad on iOS 5 on Sunday.
Yes, Apple believes that 4.3 applies directly to what you are doing. To quote 4.3: If your app has different versions for specific locations, sports teams, universities, etc., consider submitting a single app and provide the variations using in-app purchase.Also, if your app is for use only by employees of each 'client' then consider using the Enterprise or B2B programs designed for such limited distribution.
Also facing the same issue, App got a 4.3spam, it's an update to an existing live App. I hope we as Indi developers can have better support and concrete solution regarding this dreaded 4.3 app killer. I have read in some threads that even a container app gets rejected. hours/days/months/dollar spent all down the drain with this 4.3.
Hello,We have problems regarding:Guideline 4.3 - DesignWe noticed that your 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, which is considered a form of spam.Additionally, apps that use the same - or very similar - icons make it difficult for users to find apps and are considered a form of spam.The case is that we work with radio apps and all will be similar but each radio want your own app and not stay inside some shared app with others stations. Even if we change app layout, use diferent contents and graphs, the app is rejected.I believe that exist diferences between some cases, and forbiden a developer to make others apps of the same type is abusive. Apple force developer to make an app that the developer client do not need or request. That's a very strange action from apple and really I would like that someone from apple explain why reject apps of the same type from one developer could be good to someone. In
Same here, my WatchKit enabled app supports all the way back to 4.3. Of course thereis no Swift in the app nor the extension.
Hello, we have been having huge problems with guideline 4.3- Spam. We submitted our App just fine and it has been rejected on the update. We have responded multiples time with no help.Their original response was:“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” and ”When creating multiple apps where content is the only varying element, you should offer a single app to deliver differing content to customers. If you would like to offer this content for purchase, it would be appropriate to use the in-app purchase API”.We kindly explained to them our app has been created in-house with a team of over 15 developers. We did not use a template. We also attached our copyright for them. Not only this, but we only have 1 APP in our developer account. We have heard of developers being rejected with tons of APPS but we only have 1! We have double checked our description and keywords too and
