Reply to Uploading screenshots not working
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.

Reply to What would you say to someone who is new to iOS?
You get lost when you try what ? If that may be useful, my advice is to get focused. You have learned the basics (of Swift, SwiftUI, Xcode…). Even if you are not yet an expert, that is good enough for second step. Focus: Imagine a simple app that you would be pleased to use for yourself (think of some pain points you have in your daily life that an app could help solve). Then go and develop the app. Going through all the development steps will let you put in practice what you have learned and then better understand how all this works. For sure you will face issues you cannot manage: ask for help on the forum. Once you app is completed, you will see you have learned a lot. And be ready to think of an app for the AppStore. Good luck.

Reply to How to submit an app that gets approved immediately?
Which business model? This app is free. :-) There can be a business model even if everything is free for end user. For instance, you could sell navigation information. I understand that's what the reviewer wants to checks (for whatever reason). So the best is to simply answer to questions.   how I can submit apps that get approved immediately. No way for immediately. But there is an option to request expedited review on certain circumstances. Expedited reviews You can request the review of your app to be expedited if you face extenuating circumstances, such as fixing a critical bug in your app or releasing your app to coincide with an event you’re directly associated with. Critical bug fix. When submitting an expedited review to fix a critical bug, include the steps to reproduce the bug on the current version of your app. Event-related app. For apps associated with an event, we recommend you plan and schedule the release of your app in App Store Connect. However, if your app is still in review and the launch of your event is quickly approaching, you can request to have your app review expedited. Make sure your request includes the event, date of the event, and your app’s association with the event. https://developer.apple.com/distribute/app-review/#:~:text=Submit%20an%20appeal-,Expedited%20reviews,Critical%20bug%20fix.

Reply to Afraid of not being good enough
Welcome to the forum. We are never good enough (always something we don't know or don't master). Clearly, if your intent is to compete with Open AI or similar, that's certainly out of reach. But there are many examples of success stories, even when the field appeared crowded and controlled by a few major. If you are the developer, it's clear you need good technical competencies about iOS development, but if you keep your app simple at start, you don't need to be a technical genius. In your case, I could see a few success factors (take it for what it's worth): the quality and originality of your app (game or other): that's the hardest part. But don't try to mimic and compete with an existing blockbuster keep focused on a strong value proposition: you have to understand why your app will be uniquely appealing to users (even if it is a limited population, that's enough to start with). This means that the app may be simple, not requiring extraordinary technical skills, as long as it delivers a unique value proposition spend time to fine tune your marketing plan. Good luck.
