I created a sticker app that was rejected for Guideline 4.1 - Design - Copycats because it resembled my anime web site. That was intentional, obviously...so I explained that it's indeed my site and I have full rights to use its trademarks and copyrights. I even provided a URL where that site links to the app as proof that I'm not just some random person. I re-submitted the stickers unchanged...just with additional explaination.They got rejected AGAIN! This time, Apple says, Your app or its metadata appears to contain misleading content. Specifically, the application is still leveraging 3rd party content.There is absolutely no 3rd party content in the app. I think they are under the impression that the mascot character in the stickers is from some existing anime property, but the art is 100% original and merely drawn in the anime style. The art and character is not from any particular anime show. It's not even fan art. 100% original content.The screenshots included with the rejection are of the app ic

My app for a somewhat famous client was rejected under 4. 1 DESIGN: COPYCATS. What kind of materials is Apple expecting as proof that the client has authorized the app? The client has never published an app before. This is also my first time submitting to Apple, hence my asking questions hereI can put up a webpage on the client's official website identifying myself as the developer. I can also submit a signed and dated note from the client identifying myself as the authorized developer. Would these measures suffice?

Hi,Will sponsored apps be more strictly reviewed ?My biggest worry is that copycat or low-quality apps might appear as the first search result.

Hello,an app of mine was copied by another developper.Not just the app features, but all the materials on the app store:- Same app name, they just added a plus word- Almost same description. All the special wording and marketing carefully created was copied with very little changes.I wrote apple but they said to report a copyright infringement. But it’s not a copyright or official issue is it ? I don’t care if they copy my app, I care of them using same name and marketing in app store.How to deal with the situation ? Is it allowed in the app store to just copy any app, use same name adding a plus or pro, using same app description ? Doesn’t Apple disallow blatant copies of apps and app store materials ?The form apple asked me to fill is supposed to put me in contact with the copycat. But I don't care about that and expected App store authority to prevent such behavior. Please advise

Hi, I have some simple apps that uses memes of differents subjects like: politics, soccer and Big Brother(a program TV). There, you can share, favorite and contribuite of memes you have sending them to the app creatina a colaborative environment. After weeks of working on iOS version, i just have Android versions published, i sent to Apple Store evaluation and recieved as return 4.1 Copycats. In summary, i just know clearly If this kind of app is not accepted on Store and why.

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

Hi, I'm struggling really hard to have my app approved on App Store and the reviewer don't provide any useful information to help us understand what's missing and how we can work it out, just some automatic messages like that: Thank you for providing this information. However, the documentation you have provided does not sufficiently demonstrate permission to represent the products or services included in your app, or the parties identified in the documentation are not correct. You can attach documentary evidence in the App Review Information section in App Store Connect. Once you have submitted the necessary authorization, we can continue with your app’s review. This is really frustrating because my app is already up and running on Google and Apple is this BS. Actually we think the reviewer is referring to our own app on Google because on a different comment they talked about Guideline 4.1 - Design - Copycats, so I tried to prove ownership of the Google app but apparently they find it insufficient e

Hi,After I tried to submit my APP for review several times, it was still rejected for the following reasons: Guideline 4.1-Design-Copycats: The app or its metadata appears to contain potentially misleading content. Specifically, the app includes content that resembles ODIKING without the necessary authorization. But odiking belongs to our company's product, I don't know the problem, I don't understand how to prove that this product does not belong to a third party content Tanks1

hello almost one month was taken and my apps are rejected by same message i build my own idea but app rivew send me message copycats sometimes other message i build new apps totally different but error was nt gone

Hello App developers,I need to make a few changes to my app that was rejected.Issue 1:The screenshots I chose did not reflect my app in use. I looked up the Accurate Metadata section in the App Store Review Guidelines and my images seemed to be OK according to what was written there. They should be the correct aspect racio, as I took them from my device.The images show the full game experience. I'm not sure exactly what is wrong with them?Issue 2:The initial feedback told me that there was a Design - Copycats issue. I was told that my app or its metadata had misleading content with another app. It had appeared that the name I chose closely matched the name of another app. However, I have been unable to confirm if there are any other aspects of the game that I need to change to fix this issue. I'm not sure what to do here as I don't want to be removed from the developer program?Any help is most appreciated.
