Everyone is having this problem because App Store Connect is a nightmare. Not really... I had 6 or 7 iOS software titles with subscription plans last year alone. It's only new comers who are having problems. People don't come here every time their app with subscriptions are accepted. And only those new people contact Apple Support and file an expedite request several times just for a single submission.

This seems to be a reoccurring issue many developers are having and I was surprised because my app reviews used to take 12 hours max. That's a thing of the past. The wait time is several days to a few weeks now, depending on the development platform. everywhere it is mentioned that the review is done within 1-2 days Where!? I see a lot of topics under the App Store Distribution & Marketing category by concerned people that they have been waiting for several days to several weeks. despite my several expedite requests and open support case, no update on the status, no response to the communications You file an expedite request for the same submission several times. If millions of people do the same, that's basically a DDos, right? So what are you expecting? I would't blame Apple, Inc. for that. One of the main concerns that my game got approved on other platforms and the players received a new version of the game while my iOS players are still stuck on the older one, the same for the other game which I newly launched. What does that mean? It doesn't sound like a comprehensible, English sentence for me.

I am trying to set up Widgets in my app. I want to fetch my data in the SwiftData container that is shared between my app and my WidgetExtension with App Group. Where do you use App Group? If you are trying to have the widget guy access a data manager class or a view model that managers SwiftData, that's probably not a good approach. What you should use to channel data is the one you have mentioned.

I used to build desktop applications with Xojo. Those days, it was called RealBasic. There was a German vendor who tried to sell his add-on packages. Even after you say no, he comes back and try to sell one after a while. Since it didn't support iOS development, I eventually switched to Xcode.

If I I were Apple, Inc., I wouldn't tell you of the dishonest conduct you are accused of. If I did, you would find a way of circumventing the first dishonest act for which you were caught. In the past 15 years, I have seen a lot of dishonest acts. One is a bogus last chance campaign where they claim that a discount will end soon and then repeat it again. Another is a review-sharing request. I see it every two or three days at Reddit.

If millions of people try to contact them in the same manner, that's pretty much the same as DDos. I'm not surprised that Apple, Inc. no longer actively answers them. AI boomers don't take No for an answer and submit a binary for the same app tens of times and request assistance several times.

I'm afraid you are not helping yourself at all. There is no description of the app. There is no list of keywords. You don't write exactly what the reviewer has said. All you write is that your app has been labeled spam and rejected. That's all.

You give them limited content and then give them full content when they purchase a subscription plan. That's the whole, simple idea. If you are rejected, you are probably not following all IAP guidelines. I’ve made an educational app that has limited feature usage to free users but paying monthly subscribers get full access however Apple has rejected the app due to this reason Just tell us exactly what they wrote instead of summarizing it in one sentence.

There is a desktop application called Mock Craft, which you can use to place an image of any size to a bezel form you select.

While this issue is widespread on the forums, no one has a clear answer as to how to get out of this loop. I have many apps and have never had this issue. Widespread among newbies, right? I don't see it. I have attached an IAP feature to an existing software title before. I think I did it this year or last year. You can keep on writing hundreds or thousands of lines of text. But nobody is probably able to spot an issue you face unless you show screenshots or a screen-capture movie.

What's stopping you from using Xcode?

These days, if you get an app being reviewed 10 days after submission, you should consider yourself 'Lucky.' We have also submitted multiple Support inquiries but have not received any response so far. Have you considered what happens to Apple if millions of people do the same? This version is particularly important to our team Umm... Pardon me, but which submission is not important? Mine is not important, but yours is?

Just to clarify, the issue I am reporting is that when a user searches in the Mac App Store, the default visible result set appears to show iPhone/iPad apps designed for Mac, while actual Mac apps are only shown after selecting the separate “Mac Apps” option. That's true. A user searching inside the Mac App Store would reasonably expect Mac apps to be shown by default. If the search view defaults to “iPhone & iPad Apps”, then Mac apps are effectively hidden behind an extra selection step, regardless of their normal search ranking. I agree. But, honestly, I wouldn't make it a big deal. I do wonder, though, why they need to show the search result for iPhone & iPhone Apps by default when they know iPhone and iPad users don't use the Mac App Store application. In fact, I think this is stupid. It's as stupid as how Tahoe keeps running the progress wheel for 10 seconds or longer when I use NSOpenPanel and NSSavePanel on my Mac mini.

longer than the usual 48 hour timeframe That's a thing of the past. There is no such a thing as 48-hour time frame in 2026. Has anyone else encountered this issue? And what should I do? Thank you. What do you mean? There are threads here and there claiming that they have been waiting for longer than you have.

I don't want to spend too much time explaining to you what may be wrong with your submission since this is the samo-samo repeated question by subscription newbies. And I have better things to do. Anyway I strongly suggest you go through those two links you have posted. I don't know exactly why your current submission is rejected, but I see some issues by taking a look at the screenshot of your subscription sheet. Mainly, you only show what you want them to see: Price, Duration. That's it. It doesn't explain how they benefit from getting a subscription plan. It doesn't say what happens when the subscription expires. That's all you get from me.
