My iOS app was submitted on July 23, 2026, and it has remained in "Waiting for Review" for 12 days. It has never progressed to "In Review."
This is my first App Store submission, and the delay is preventing me from launching my business.
App Store Connect shows no outstanding messages, metadata issues, agreements, contracts, or actions required on my account.
So far, I have:
- Contacted Apple Developer Support and opened a support case.
- Contacted Apple through the "Contact Us" page in App Store Connect.
- Waited several days without receiving a response.
- Verified that there are no pending agreements or account issues.
- Confirmed that the app status has not changed since July 23.
I've also noticed several other developers reporting similar delays for submissions made in late July, so I'm wondering if there is currently an issue with the App Review queue.
Could an Apple staff member please check whether my submission is stuck or if there is anything else I should do?
For privacy reasons, I am not posting my app name, Apple ID, bundle ID, or case number publicly. I would be happy to provide those details privately to an Apple employee if needed.
Thank you.
