App stuck in “Waiting for Review” for a long time – need guidance

Hi everyone,

I’m looking for some guidance regarding my app review process.

I submitted my iOS app (version 1.0) and it has been in “Waiting for Review” status for quite some time now. I understand that review times can vary, but this is taking longer than I expected, and I’m not sure if this is normal or if there might be an issue with my submission.

For some additional context:

1. The first time I submitted the app, it was rejected.
2. Since I’m new to the Apple Developer platform, I mistakenly removed the rejected build instead of addressing the rejection and resubmitting.
3. After that, I submitted the app again, and now it’s been waiting for review.

My question is:

Could removing the rejected build have caused any delays or issues with the review process? Or is the current waiting time unrelated to that?

I would really appreciate any advice from experienced developers on whether I should just continue waiting or if there’s something specific I should check or do.

Thank you in advance for your help!
