Our app's core product is deep level aggregation of events that are otherwise available online through various websites, forums and FB pages. In short, the convenience of a centralized app to find this data IS the core value/utility of the app and is what we want behind the paywall. There are other features regarding calendar, favorites, maps etc. to improve UX however, this is not the subscription motivation in our eyes. How do we overcome the 5.1.1 rejection? See below... App Review Hello, Thank you for your response. Regarding 5.1.1, the app still requires users to register or log in to access features that are not account based. Specifically, the app requires users to register before browsing events. Apps may not require users to enter personal information to function, except when directly relevant to the core functionality of the app or required by law. To resolve this issue, revise the app to let users freely access the app's features that are not account based. The app may still requi

Hi all,Our team recently submitted a new app version to the app store and got rejected saying that we violated 5.1.1 because our app requires users to register with location information to use job posting feature.The thing is, we require such information for content and user security purpose. If a user who lives in LA and posts a job in NY, then our system will identify such user as a high risk user and may ask the user to pass more security check measures, i.e. provide more information to demonstrate his/her posting are real and effective.We are not sure if security reason is sufficient engough to pursuade the app review team to approve our app version update, any one has thoughts on this? How do we solve this problem? Thanks!

Hello Apple Developer Community, We’re running into a challenge with App Review related to Guideline 5.1.1 (Data Collection and Storage), and are hoping to get insights from others who may have encountered something similar. Our app is built entirely around account-specific functionality. Each user is issued a unique QR code tied to their account, which enables and disables core functionality. This QR code is not generic - it’s unique to the user and is securely stored in our Firebase backend to support cross-device use and persistent access. App Review has flagged that requiring login violates Guideline 5.1.1, despite the fact that we have already moved the login step to occur after the user completes an in-app purchase, as per their previous guidance. Login is not used to gate purchasing, but it is critical for generating and linking the unique QR code to the user’s account. Beyond the QR code, our product roadmap includes multiple account-dependent features like usage tracking, goal setti

Dear Apple, I have an inquiry about your new guideline section of 5.1.1, which states the following: 5.1.1(v): Apps supporting account creation must also offer account deletion. Does this apply to applications which do not have direct in-app registration, but contains a URL which redirects the user to a webpage where the registration process takes place? Thank you for your answer in advance, Kovács Balázs

My application allows to upload photo logs and assign it to a person only by uploading images from camera. In the process it asks for camera and geolocation permissions. At this moment it doesn't do much. Why could this be happening? Guideline 5.1.1 - Legal - Privacy - Data Collection and Storage The app collects information from various public sources to build individual profiles. Next Steps To resolve this issue, please remove any feature that attempts to build individual profiles based on collected public data.

I enrolled in Apple Developer Program as an organization and downloaded Xcode 5.1.1 on a Mac OS X 10.8. I have completed designing a new Mac App. Now, I want to proceed with the distribution process, but when I go to XCode>Accounts, the Signing Identities show as being revoked for Mac Development, Mac App Distribution, and Mac Installer Distribution. The only Signing Identities that remain valid are Developer ID Application and Developer ID Installer.Don’t have a clue on how to fix these. I don’t know if they were revoked because Xcode 5.1.1 is too old. I would appreciate any explanation of fixing this issue. Another solution would be to use another computer and that leads me to the next question.Second question. I just updated a MacBook Pro 15, 2.8GHz with OS X El Capitan. The apple ID on this computer is different than the Apple Developer Program. I would like to download from the App Store, the latest XCode 7.3.1, so I can distribute my new Mac App and don’t have to rely on XCode 5.1.1

Hi All,Recently my team had sumitted an educational App in which we provide help to students getting admission in best possible college for them.but Apple Review team rejected submission stating that we have violated privacy policy section 5.1.1 - Gender (Collecting user inforamation),then after we updated our policy for the same and also provided one section inside app dedicated to privacy policy.After that we submitted app, Again they rejected submission for same issue.Rejection:From Apple5. 1.1 Legal: Privacy - Data Collection and StorageGuideline 5.1.1 - Legal - Privacy - Data Collection and StorageWe noticed that your app requires users to register with personal information that is not directly relevant to your app’s core functionality. Specifically, the following fields are required but do not appear to be directly relevant to your app’s core functionality:- GenderAny help would be appreciated.

I have a question. Our new app does not have in-app purchase. It is a book reader and users must log into the app so that they can use the reader and see thire books that they have purchased from our web based store. Very much like Kindle and Amazon.I have not been able to get Apple Store's approval yet because they insist on 5.1.1. in the guideline. They insist that we cannot have any login in order to let users access their books. Problem is that we cannot give any content unless user is validated. Have you faced this issue before, and what do you think the solution is

Is it possible to create Ad-Hoc builds from Xcode 7.3 to test on an iPad running 5.1.1? Is this supported by Apple any longer? Currently I can not use Testflight as I cannot download the App onto the 5.1.1 device as it requires the device to be running iOS 8.0+. I'm trying to release the app onto the store using Xcode to deploy for 5.1.1 and have had to get an older version of Xcode (6.4) to do this but I cannot test using Ad-Hoc build as I cannot find a way to deploy it onto the older devices. I can run it on the device using Xcode 6.4. I've had to deploy it on to the store to do my testing and have discovered the app won't open, hence the need for ad-hoc testing to diagnose the problem. The issue i'm getting from the diagnostic and usage file from the 5.1.1 device is : Dyld Error Message: Library not loaded: System/Library/Frameworks/************.framework/************. I assume its something to do with linking the ************ framework when deploying to the App Store as

)HiI'm creating my first app and need to implement a user/auth model. I need some help understanding 5.1.1 of guidelines so I minimize the time I waste implementing different solutions. I've googled / read apple forums a bit on this and I'm not sure what is OK, and what isn't.I originally wanted to just use Facebook for login, as the only thing I will need is a unique userID (e.g. .public_profile premission only) and some authentification. I did not want to roll my own security since 1) no need to invent it again; there are so many other places that I can use for user auth (OAuth, Facebook, Google+ etc.) and 2) most likely my own implementation would be less secure and 3) yet _another_ password?!However it seems that Apple does not allow you to use social platforms for authentification alone as per the guidelines section 5.1.1 (ii). And from how I read 5.1.1 (ii) OAuth wouldn't be allowed either, since I need to use one or more providers (i.e. social networks) and then we are essent

Hello, I'm posting about a 5.1.1 compliance issue with account deletion. The issue I am running into is that we use a customer service flow (email) to initiate account deletion. Now, it is not explicitly stated that email cannot be used in the 5.1.1 Guideline, but in a linked FAQ which states that only Apps in highly regulated industries, as described in App Store Review Guideline 5.1.1(ix), may use additional customer service flows to confirm and facilitate the account deletion process. However, 5.1.1(ix) does not list what a highly regulated industry is, or how it can be determined. It just lists some examples: Apps that provide services in highly regulated fields (such as banking and financial services, healthcare, gambling, legal cannabis use, and air travel). If the industry your app is used in, is not one listed in these examples, but is still considered to be highly regulated, what do you need to provide to show it is a highly regulated industry? What qualifies an in
