Hi all, I’m looking for a sanity check on review timelines. My iOS app is already submitted & has been sitting in “Ready for Review” for the past 2 weeks with no status changes. To avoid confusion, this is not a “how to submit” question. App status: Ready for Review (unchanged for 2 weeks).., for anyone who has shipped recently, what’s the longest you’ve seen an app remain in Ready for Review before it’s reasonable to assume it might be stuck and at what point would you reach out for an update, and what channel worked best (Developer Support / App Review contact / other)? Any real-world ranges (days/weeks) are really appreciated. Thanks so much.

App status: Ready for Review (unchanged for 2 weeks)

That means you only made a draft submission and haven’t submitted your app

If it’s submitted it should say “Waiting for Review” or “In Review”

edit: also, for your actual question, my experience is usually that I’m waiting for review for about a day at most and in review for about 1-2 hours

However, I did recently have to wait about 3 days for the review to start, although that wait did include the weekend and I assume there were also more submissions than usual due to the age rating emails they sent out
