Request an expedited review
App Review works around the clock with the goal of reviewing at least 50% of submissions in less than 24 hours and 90% in less than 48 hours. However, if you're facing extenuating circumstances, such as fixing a critical bug or timing your release to coincide with an event, you can request an expedited review.
-
Submit the app for review in App Store Connect. Only submissions that have already been sent to App Review can be expedited. Make sure the app is ready for review by adding all required information in the Notes field and providing a demo account or demo mode for account-based features.
-
Go to Request an Expedited App Review, select the app and platform which you would like to receive an expedited review, and submit.
-
App Review will evaluate your request and expedite the app's review as allowed by availability and demand.
Note: Expedite requests should be reserved for matters of genuine urgency.
Critical bug fixes
If you're requesting an expedited review to fix a critical bug, include this information in the Notes field in App Store Connect when you submit the app for review.
Event-related apps
If you're requesting an expedited review to align the app's release with an upcoming event, include the event, its date, and how your app is associated with it in the Notes field in App Store Connect when you submit the app for review. Schedule its release in App Store Connect ahead of time if you can.
