Hello everyone,
I would like to ask if other developers are currently experiencing long delays to approve an app.
In my case, my macOS app update (version 1.1) has been stuck in “Ready for Review” for more than 8 days without entering the review phase.
Timeline: • Feb 21 – Initial submission • Feb 22 – In Review • Feb 25 – Rejected • Feb 25 – Resubmitted • Mar 2 – In Review • Mar 2 – Rejected • Mar 5 (Wednesday) – Submitted again → Ready for Review • Today – Still Ready for Review, never entered In Review
All issues mentioned in the previous rejections were fixed and the build was resubmitted successfully.
What also confuses me is that in the App Review section I see a red exclamation mark, even though there are no unresolved messages and the build shows as submitted.
I would like to ask: • Are others currently seeing unusually long delays? • Could this indicate a queue issue or system problem? • Has Apple changed something recently in the review pipeline?
Normally my previous versions were reviewed and approved in a couple of days, so this delay seems quite unusual.
Thanks in advance for any insight from other developers.
