Hello Apple Developer Community and App Review Team,
Our first submission on September 29 was returned because App Review wanted to confirm the price of an auto-renewable subscription. We confirmed the price, made an update, and resubmitted on October 8.
On October 8, Developer Support confirmed that our app was “Waiting for Review” and had been added to the App Review queue (case number 102984068572). They also said that review was proceeding normally and that no action was needed from us.
Eleven days later, the app is still showing “Waiting for Review,” so it has now been in the review process for nearly three weeks. We replied to Developer Support on October 13 but have not received a response. We also requested an expedited review on Friday, October 16, and the status has not changed.
This is time-sensitive for us. We are preparing to release the app ahead of a national convention in November, so that professionals have enough lead time to download and test it. We hope that those who have used the app can share their experience with colleagues at the event.
We know other developers who have experienced similar delays, so we don’t think this is unique to our submission. Is there anything else we can do to move the review forward, and has anyone found something that helped? If an App Review team member can take a look, we’re happy to provide anything further.
