I’m looking for advice and clarification regarding an issue I’ve encountered during the review process. My app was recently rejected under Guideline 4.3(a) for allegedly duplicating content or functionality of other apps.
The feedback stated that my app "appears to be identical to apps already on the App Store," but I’m confident this is a misunderstanding. The app is entirely unique, both in its functionality and its independently developed codebase.
This rejection is puzzling, as I’ve thoroughly reviewed the guidelines and ensured that my app adheres to them. Has anyone else encountered similar issues? How did you address them?
To the Apple team: Could you provide additional context or examples of the similarities identified? I’d be happy to address any concerns or make adjustments if necessary to align with the App Store standards. Submission ID: a6e96157-a543-45c6-b05d-8c50766ea4bf
I’m grateful for any insights or advice from the community and the Apple team. Thanks in advance for your help!
Best regards.
