Hello,
I submitted my app for review several days ago, but the status is still “Waiting for Review.” It appears that nobody from the Apple review team has started reviewing the app yet.
This situation is extremely frustrating and unacceptable for developers who depend on timely reviews to maintain and release their applications. Waiting days, weeks, or even a month just to receive a potential rejection due to a fixable issue wastes a significant amount of time for development teams.
The main problem is not only the delay itself, but the lack of progress. The status remains stuck at "Waiting for Review", which suggests that the review process has not even begun.
I have also noticed that many other developers are currently experiencing the same issue, which suggests that this may be a broader problem affecting the App Store review system.
Could someone from Apple please clarify:
-
Why apps are staying in “Waiting for Review” for so long
-
Whether there is currently a backlog or system issue affecting reviews
-
What developers can do to avoid these long delays
At this point, I would really appreciate an immediate solution or at least an explanation for what is happening with the review process.
