App review in status "Waiting for review" for over 2 months
Hi everyone, I’m dealing with a strange App Review delay and would appreciate any advice from people who faced something similar. My app was released on January 20. A small update was approved quickly on January 28, and another one on January 29. So far everything looked normal. Then I submitted another update on February 6. This submission stayed in “Waiting for Review” for 3 weeks with no progress. During that time, I contacted Apple Support to ask if something was wrong with my submission or the review queue. The response took quite a while, and since nothing was changing, I assumed the queue got stuck. So I decided to remove the update and resubmit it. Later Support replied and told me that I removed my own update, and that the queue was working normally and there was nothing I needed to do. However, even after resubmitting, the new build stayed in the same “Waiting for Review” status all the way until March 19 — with no signs of movement. At this point I started to think maybe the review team found some critical issues that would block the app from going live. I rechecked the entire app, didn’t find anything serious, but fixed a couple of small bugs and submitted another update. Unfortunately, this update is now also stuck in “Waiting for Review.” Additionally, I requested an expedited review on April 6, but haven’t received any response or changes in status. So at this point I’m not sure what else I can do. Has anyone experienced something similar? Is there anything that helped you unblock a submission stuck in this state? Any advice or shared experiences would be greatly appreciated.
