Hello, I submitted my app for review and it was rejected under Guideline 4.2. I believe the rejection was a misunderstanding of my app's functionality, so I filed an appeal through the Resolution Center explaining why I believe my app meets the minimum functionality requirements.

It's been passed almost two weeks since I filed the appeal but I've received no response or update on the status.

My app is directly tied to an event launching next week, and without a resolution, I will miss the launch window entirely.

I'd greatly appreciate any visibility into where my appeal stands, or any guidance on what steps I can take to move this forward.

Thank you for your time.

Guideline 4.2 says the following.

If your app is not particularly useful, unique, or “app-like,” it doesn’t belong on the App Store.

You should have spent the last two weeks enhancing the fictionality of your app with unique features that you don't see with other apps. The appeal board often sides with reviewers. Additionally, there is no promise as to when they take your case. So you should have had Plan B and Plan C before taking your case to the appeal board.
