YAASWR - Yet Another App Stuck Waiting Review

I submitted my IOS app (Apple ID 6783073058) on 2026-07-21.

The submission confirmation email says:

On average, 50 percent of apps are reviewed in 24 hours and over 90 percent are reviewed in 48 hours. Once we've completed the review, your app's status will be updated and you will be notified.

After 6 days still Waiting for Review, I asked Claude if there was any way to check on the status. He suggested opening a support ticket. When I filed 20000121192005 I was given the option to call or email, so I opted for a call. Immediately the phone rang. Then I sat on hold for 2 hours waiting to be connected. After that, I gave up and hung up. Immediately the phone rang again, but then told me that I had called Apple outside of business hours and hung up.

I am a first time submitter, and have all kinds of questions about the submission process. If I did something wrong, please tell me so I can fix it. But leaving me in the queue for a week is just mean.

Can I get a review, please?

Thank you for your post. We have escalated your support case to Developer Support. The App Review team will contact you in App Store Connect once the review is complete. If you continue to experience issues during review, please contact us.
