A Developer’s First App—Unfairly Rejected and Account Terminated

After months of navigating repeated 4.3 guideline rejections, Apple has now terminated my developer account. This was a fresh app—one I worked hard on, designing it from the ground up with unique features.

At first, my app was rejected under 4.3, but I complied with Apple's feedback and was approved. Two weeks later, with no major changes, it was suddenly rejected again for the same reason. I provided proof that this wasn’t a duplicate or spam app—sharing my GitHub repository, design iterations, and direct communication with designers. Still, my account was terminated.

I’ve reached out for clarification, but the lack of transparency in the review process makes it difficult to understand what went wrong. This was my first app under this account, and I paid the $99 developer fee like everyone else. I just want a fair review.

If there’s a way to appeal this, I’d be grateful for a second look.
