What is not clear is what actually happens after that date. My understanding is that you will not be able to submit a new release, but they don't tell the app will be blocked. So I fear it is case B. That's how I interpreted, to be on the safe side.   if you can't provide a new build yet In fact, there is no need to develop a new version. You can simply re-archive the former version of the app with incremented build and version numbers, complete age ratings information and then submit with this "new" build. In the what's new field of AppStoreConnect, simply say: minor bug fixes. Given the many times this question is raised on the forum and how much it worries developers, it would be great to have a comprehensive answer from Apple.

Anyway,WHAT APP IS IT? what is this GENERAL EMAIL? Should we ignore it? Yes, I do think it is a general email You should not ignore, as there is apparently a risk after jan 31 not to be able to resubmit. Unfortunately, they don't tell which app. To know which app, you have to go in appStoreConnect and select each app. If you need to update, you'll get a specific warning. See details here: https://developer.apple.com/forums/thread/809243?answerId=869488022#869488022 If so, you should update by resubmitting with the age information fully completed.

Yes, the email is sent to everyone apparently. But if you look at an app in AppStoreConnect, you will get a specific notification if you need to update. Here it is for one of our apps (in French, but does not matter) when all age information was not yet completed: I could see the age information (7 views) but could not update. I noted that information update must be done before January 31, 2026. So I submitted a new version (very limited changes), completed information (this time it was possible), incremented build number, and now message is gone:

Uploading a new release after completing the questionnaire on age ratings seems to be all that's needed. But the age ratings questionnaire must be fully answered.

I still received an email with the subject “Final reminder: Answer the updated age ratings questions,” Is it a message relative to a specific app ? It seems it is a general reminder that does not take into account whether or not your apps are already OK.

I advise not to resubmit, that could create additional problems. Probably by this time there are a lot of submission, notably to adjust to age ratings requirement.

If all the check boxes in the 7 pages of age ratings are answered, I don't think you have to resubmit. Otherwise, yes. Can't you resubmit the same build as of August, just incrementing version and build bumber but no change to code ? You would then be safe to have all the time to complete the really ne version.

I confirm what @SgDeveloper posted. Need to submit a new release. Read support answer here: https://developer.apple.com/forums/thread/796744 And if I read correctly, a change in ratings in the future will be considered a major change that require extra process. May be exactly the same, just increment version and build and note in what's new : information about age ratings.

Received as well and do not tell which apps are concerned. This is the type of really stressful message. Looks like it was a very general email to all developers, probably for legal need.

In such a case (former rejection) it is wise to add the explanation in the message to reviewer in submission form. That helps a new reviewer to be fully aware of the context.

You don't need to submit. Just prepare for submission by completing in AppStoreConnect, but not submitting.

Please tell what is the exact size of the image you try to load (read dimensions in image file information). Is it a png image ?

You can use Preview app to resize the image at the exact dimension within resize in Tools menu.

AFAIK, you can't. See discussion here: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/55118777/re-using-the-same-bundle-id-after-permanently-app-deletion-from-the-itunesconn#:~:text=You%20can't%20delete%20and,bundle%20ID%20between%20paid%20accounts.&text=WARNING%3A%20If%20you%20remove%20an,use%20by%20another%20developer%20account.

Welcome to the forum.   I already tried to cut it into the right form Don't do so. The way to do it is to use directly screen shots of the adapted simulator. AppStoreConnect tells you what are the required sizes (other marked as optional). You only have to provide 6.9" (or 6.7") for iPhone. Select the right simulator (such as 17 Pro max) and ctrl-S in the simulator. You will get the correct format. You can provide more sizes optionnally.
