Hi, I currently have several iOS and macOS submissions on the same developer account that have been stuck in “Waiting for Review” for between 5 and 9 days. None has moved to “In Review,” and I haven’t received any messages or requests for action.

Also one of my macOS app on the same account has been unresolved for about four weeks. I submitted it on July 10, it was rejected on July 15, I appealed to the App Review Board on July 23, and contacted Developer Support on July 31. I still haven’t received a meaningful response.

I’m seeing many similar reports here. Does anyone know what might be causing these delays or what I can do to get the submissions reviewed?

Thanks.

Welcome to the forum.

 

Does anyone know what might be causing these delays

The huge number of apps submitted (large increase due to AI generated apps).

 

what I can do to get the submissions reviewed?

Very little. Note that an app that has been rejected takes usually longer to be reviewed.

I came here to poke around because my update to an already approved app has been “In Review“ all day. I know it hasn’t been terribly long, but I’m still curious if it’s time for the annual/semi-annual slow down... Sometimes I wonder if reviews get slower during summer months due to people taking time off? Who knows.

I just noticed that the last time I noticed a major app review slow down and came here and posted about it was about 1 year ago. I think they’re short staffed in July and August. Or more people submit apps in July and August? Or things break in July/August? 🤠
