Dear App Review： We are an image processing software that undergoes regular iterations and updates with new features every month. At present, our updated version has been waiting for almost 2 weeks in the "waiting for review" state. During this waiting process, we have made the following actions but are unable to enter the review process: We requested an expedited review and informed that it was successful, but no progress was made; Contacted "App Review Status" via email; Please inform us that everything is normal and wait for the review; Refused by oneself, resubmit for review; Our users have been anxiously asking us when to update the new features, and they are very eager to use them. Apple ID of the App:6447539504 Looking forward to your reply, thank you!

My app sells digital Bibles, can I use a payment gateway like PayPal or any other to sell, or should I always use StoreKit?

Hi Apple team, We've recently launched a new iOS application on the Apple Store and enabled the reset rating option. However, it hasn't reset the ratings for all users' screens. Could you please assist us in resolving this issue at your earliest convenience? Thank you!

We are constantly getting rejected for deploying rewards apps. If we add the ability for users to choose whether or not they can receive rewards, will we be approved for deployment? If you have other ideas and experiences, please share.

I am trying to add macOS as a new platform version to a universal app, which currently has an iOS and visionOS version. Every time I try I receive this error - "macOS: There was an unexpected error while adding this platform." I submitted a Feedback - FB14001529 I also submitted a TSI and a contact us report through App Store Connect. Any help from Apple on this issue would be great. Thanks, David

Hello, We have an application within our tenant. It is still visible in the iOS and iPadOS App Store as a downloadable and usable application. However, we want to unpublish it because it is no longer managed. To do this, I have specifically subscribed to a Developer account with my account so that I can connect to App Store Connect and perform this task. Unfortunately, I have not had the opportunity to do so because the application does not appear in my "apps." The Apps tab displays "you haven't added any apps yet. To get started, click add apps." I thought that by connecting my email enterprise address, I would be able to find the application and unpublish it, but it seems that since I was not the one who originally published it, I cannot see it. Could you help me so that I can perform this task? The person who published the app is no longer part of our company, so we cannot ask them to "transfer the rights" of the application. Thank you in advance.

Hi, we were able to migrate our solution from Xamarin to MAUI (.net 8). After a 2 weeks fight, the app is finally working on my dev devices. Unfortunately, after sending the app to review, it gets rejected because of the following: ITMS-90338: Non-public API usage - The app references non-public symbols in [Our app name]: _SCDynamicStoreCreate, _SCDynamicStoreCreateRunLoopSource, _SCDynamicStoreKeyCreateNetworkServiceEntity, _SCDynamicStoreSetNotificationKeys. If method names in your source code match the private Apple APIs listed above, altering your method names will help prevent this app from being flagged in future submissions. In addition, note that one or more of the above APIs may be located in a static library that was included with your app. If so, they must be removed. For further information, visit the Technical Support Information at http://developer.apple.com/support/technical/ From what I understand, this is because the 4 methods (_SCDynamicStoreCreate, _SCDynamicStoreCreateRunLoopSource, _SCDynamicStoreKeyCreateNetworkServiceEntity, _SCDynamicStoreSetNotificationKeys) exists in the generated Mach-O binary. Those methods are not used directly by our application but because of HttpClient we are using to request our business API The methods are implemented in the System.Net.NetworkInformation assembly which is referenced in the System.Net.Http assembly Given to the MAUI Team those methods are public and should not be rejected (https://github.com/dotnet/maui/issues/23210#issuecomment-2186038540) Kind regards

In order to have ads on Meta that link to the App Store directly (instead of to a website) Meta requires that I install the FB SDK. Now: Apple requires an ATT permission popup if a user is being tracked. I've installed the SDK but turned all tracking off by default (so it behaves as though the user said "no" to the ATT popup) and it's still not passing review. Any ideas as to what I could try next?

We are utilizing the App Store's server-to-server notification feature. Upon receiving a notification on our server, is there a specific deadline or time limit for responding back to the App Store? We just skimmed through the below documentation https://developer.apple.com/documentation/appstoreservernotifications/responding_to_app_store_server_notifications In this doc we could only see the responses that app store is expecting us to send back but no any information regarding acknowledgment time for a request

My application is almost 5+ years old suddenly it's not available in app store search before it was working fine.

Please anyone can help us when my app will available in app store?

Our submitted binary app version has been approved by Apple reviewers. It's currently pending Developer Release. However, our in-app purchase, which was submitted at the same time, is still under review. Since the newly added in-app purchase hasn't been approved yet, we've decided to hold off on releasing the binary app version. Should we just wait for Apple to approve the in-app purchase, or are there any other recommended actions? Thank you.

Hello everyone, I have a question, can anyone help me answer it? Thank you very much! I am developing a health application for my company’s employees, which has a large number of employees (more than 1000 employees). Once it is completed, I want to publish it on the Apple Store. Our employees are provided with login accounts, so there is no account creation function. Will my application be approved?

Apple Connect API keeps getting 401 errors. Can you tell me in detail what the problem is? And I'm sending you an es256 type jwt to use Apple API, so could you update the exact location of the key file I use at? I've been facing a 401 error for a few days now. The data thrown from Apple's server is difficult to pinpoint and the document is too complicated. Please also provide developmental support. Currently, I am sending from node to axios.

Hi, I read the requirements for the App Store. Specifically the subscription section. I understand for app subscriptions that there are Apple requirements around that with Apply Pay and such. However, the subscriptions are web site subscriptions for workout videos. The payments are done on the web site and the user will log in via the app to view the video. They can only sign up if they make a purchase on the web site. Is this going to be denied from the app store? All payments are done on web site and the app is to log in and view the content.

I'm unable to reproduce an issue which only seems to occur on App Review devices. It's mainly stuck at a loading screen when trying to sign in with GameCenter. I'm using Microsoft Azure PlayFab as a game backend. I've tested my game on two iPads and three different iPhone models. They're all able to connect to the server. No debug build was installed on those devices via Xcode. I used the same build which was rejected, freshly installed via TestFlight on the internal test track. Looking at my server logs, I can't even find one single request sent from the App Review device. This can only mean that there is some connectivity issue between their device and the server (e.g. a firewall or proxy). I've also implemented a retry mechanism so in case the request times out, it would try it again and after three retries it would eventually display an error message and further details. How shall I figure this issue out, if the only thing the reviewers provided me is a screenshot of the loading screen?

Hello! Please advise, is it possible to download the app in the app store in Crimean Tatar language?

I have recently launched a new app that replaces an older app and I want to grandfather all old app users to the new app for free. I no longer have access to the source code of the old app and it is not authenticating users so there is no way to turn off access to users to get them to switch to the new app. Would I be able to publish a new version of the "old" app with just a static screen that would say something along the lines of "this app is no longer available, download app xyz for free access to the new material" or would Apple not allow that as technically this static screen doesn't do anything?

I have a question regarding app publishing. I am a developer creating applications for my clients. I want to publish an application I developed for a client using my own Apple Developer account. The content of the application consists of data provided by my client. Can I do this? Are there any examples of applications that have been published under similar circumstances?
